Congenital patent urachus associated with incomplete urethral duplication: a rare association.
Congenital patent urachus (CPU) is an uncommon anomaly. Blind incomplete urethral duplication is encountered more frequently than other types of urethral duplication (UD) in clinical practice. We describe a child with CPU in association with distal blind incomplete UD. A possible pathogenesis of this extremely rare coexistence is discussed.
