Abstract
- Median raphe canal is a uncommon disease and represents a defect in the embryologic development of male genitalia. It occurs most commonly near the glans penis, but may occur anywhere from the urethral meatus to the anus, and is lined by endodermal or ectodermal epithelium. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice. we report a median raphe canal on the ventral aspect of the penis and the scrotum with review of literatures.
