Abstract

We report a congenital urethrocutaneous fistula in 13 months old male. The congenital urethrocutaneous fistula is a rare anomaly. The cause of congenital urethrocutaneous fistula is unknown but probably involves a focal defect in the urethral plate that prevents fusion of the urethral fold. He is now being followed up without any evidence of voiding problems after the defects was covered with penile skin flap.
