Issue Date: | 2021 | Source: | 66 , 2021 | Journal: | Journal of Pediatric Surgery Case Reports | Abstract: | Diphallia is an extremely rare embryological anomaly, occurring once in 5–6 million births. Here we discuss a neonate who was referred for surgical consultation of diphallia, in which examination revealed a dominant right phallus and apparently shorter left phallus. MRI and retrograde urethrogram revealed a unique pathway of the right urethra and a stenosed, but otherwise normal left urethra. The decision was made to excise the right phallus and associated urethra due to the correct anatomy of the left phallus and corresponding urethra.L20108867782021-02-09 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.epsc.2021.101802 | Resources: | https://www.embase.com/search/results?subaction=viewrecord&id=L2010886778&from=exporthttp://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.epsc.2021.101802 | | Keywords: | diphallia;human;male;male genital system surgery;newborn;nuclear magnetic resonance imaging;pediatric surgery;clinical article;urethra duplication;urethra stenosis;urethra surgery;urethrography;articlecase report;priority journal;consultation;cystoscopy;diathermy | Type: | Article |
