Özet

Konjenital anterior üretra divertikülü, genellikle penis ventralinde fluktuan bir şişlik şeklinde bulgu veren ve çocuklarda ender karşılaşılan bir anormalliktir. Alt üriner sistemde obstrüksiyona ve böylece yineleyen idrar yolu enfeksiyonlarına neden olur. On sekiz aylık erkek hasta, ilk olarak yenidoğan döneminde fark edilen, peniste şişlik ve damlatma tarzında idrar yapma yakınmaları ile getirildi. Konjenital anterior üretra divertikülü tanısı konulan hasta erken tanı ve tedavisinin öneminin vurgulanması amacıyla sunuldu.
