We report 5 male patients with ventral diverticula of the bulbous urethra. There was urinary infection in 4 cases, urethral obstruction in 1 and voiding disturbances in 1. Urethral catheterism had been performed previously for various reasons in three patients. Urethroscopic evaluation was successfully completed with endourethral resection in four instances. Based on our morphologic findings we believe that the relationship between these diverticula and dilatation of Cowper's gland ducts is beyond doubt. The cause of this dilatation remains unclear, but mechanical factors, like catheterism, can play a role.
我们报告了5例球部尿道腹侧憩室的男性患者。4例有泌尿系统感染，1例有尿道梗阻，1例有排尿障碍。3例患者此前因各种原因曾行尿道插管。4例经尿道镜评估并成功完成了经尿道切除术。基于我们的形态学发现，我们认为这些憩室与考珀腺导管扩张之间的关系是毋庸置疑的。这种扩张的原因尚不清楚，但诸如插管等机械因素可能起了作用。
