“…For others, the congenital diverticulum represents the expression of an embryological abnormality by abnormal development of the urethral plate and fusion of the genital folds. But other mechanisms of occurrence have been reported by Orikasa et al [5]. These are dilated para-urethral glands, urethral duplication, and ectopic urethra.…”

Introduction: The urethral diverticulum or urethrocele corresponds to a saccular dilation of a portion of the urethral wall. Our objective was to report the clinical aspects, investigations and therapeutic aspects of three cases of congenital urethrocele. Observations: They were three male patients aged 11, 20 and 42 years, two of whom had consulted for terminal dribbling. The diagnosis of urethrocele was made for all patients with retrograde and voiding cystouretrography. Treatment consisted of resection of the urethrocele followed by urethroplasty for both cases. Conclusion: Diagnostic of congenital urethrocele must always be assessed when there is a persistent terminal dribbling, and systematically ask for a Retrograde Cysto-Urethrography (RCUG) to confirm it.

“…Although CBD may occur sporadically, they develop more commonly in children with disturbance of connective tissue formation (DCTF) such as Ehlers-Danlos [5, 6], Menkes [7, 8] and Elfin-Facies [9] syndromes. A total of 50 cases have been reported in the English literature [1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20]. Only 21 cases were isolated CBD [1, 2, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20]; however, 29 other cases were associated with DCTF [5, 6, 7, 8, 9].…”

CBD almost always occur in boys and most reported cases were under 2 years of age [1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20].…”

“…In addition, these patients are prone to stone formation in later life [4]. While patients with the isolated form most commonly have outlet obstruction [1, 2, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20], patients with DCTF have present infection as well as hemorrhagia [5, 6, 7, 8, 9]. …”
