Abstract

The association of hypospadias and cryptorchism with an enlarged prostatic utricle has been recognized for many years. But in patients of hypospadias, routine endoscopy or retrograde urethrography is so rarely performed that enlarged prostatic utricle can`t be found easily. Recently we experienced one case of hypospadias associated with enlargement of the prostatic utricle in 25 year old man. Enlargement of prostatic utricle was removed surgically and the hypospadias was repaired.
