Sumario: | Congenital anterior urethrocutaneous fistula (CAUF) is a rare anomaly, commonly observed in the mid-shaft or more distal position of the penis. It can be seen in the perineum in anorectal anomalies or in cases of duplicated urethra. However, isolated CAUF opening into the perineum has not been reported. Herein, we present a case of congenital anterior urethral diverticulum and possible perineal urethrocutaneous fistula of an otherwise healthy neonate. |
