BACKGROUND
A 3-year-old boy visited our hospital for aberrance of urination. He had a fistula on his ventral penile shaft. Our diagnosis was congenital urethrocutaneous fistula.
METHODS/RESULTS: We performed one-stage repair transverse preputial onlay island flap urethroplasty. Postoperatively, the patient was voiding comfortably with no recurrence of fistula.
CONCLUSIONS
Congenital urethrocutaneous fistula is rare. Eighteen cases of congenital urethrocutaneous fistula have been reported previously. We consider the etiology of congenital urethrocutaneous fistula as a deficiency of the urethral plate and fusion of urethral folds.
