Key Clinical MessageBladder duplication and congenital bladder diverticulum are rare anomalies. We described two boys with rare bladder anomalies found on prenatal ultrasounds. Postnatal investigations and surgical findings confirmed these bladder anomalies. The malformation was associated with other system anomalies. This report of pre‐ and postnatal imaging with surgical correlation contributes to our understanding about these rare bladder anomalies.

Background Duplication of the bladder with duplication of the posterior urethra is a relatively rare congenital malformation. Cases of sagittal septum duplication of the bladder with duplication of the posterior urethra have rarely been reported. Furthermore, the combination thereof with congenital megacolon is rare. Case presentation A 21-year-old male was admitted to our hospital because of frequent urination for two months. He presented to another hospital first with frequent urination and underwent computed tomography (CT) and testicular biopsy. Anti-inflammatory therapy was administered by the doctor to the patient. For further diagnosis and treatment, the patient went to the outpatient department in our hospital on June 6, 2022. After admission, the patient underwent ultrasound, CT, MRI, cystoscopy, and other related examinations and tests. The examination results suggested that the patient had duplication of the bladder with duplication of the posterior urethra. In addition, the patient’s mother reported that he had suffered from long-term constipation with abdominal distension before the age of 5 years. At the time, he was admitted to the local hospital and was diagnosed with congenital megacolon based on the relevant examinations. After the patient was diagnosed with duplication of bladder and urethra, the doctor recommended surgical treatment to the patient. However, he considered that he only had frequent urination symptoms, and chose conservative treatment rather than to undergo surgical treatment. Thus, the doctor prescribed anti-inflammatory treatment. Four months later, the patient reported that frequent urination symptoms persisted, and was also considering fertility-related problems. The outpatient follow-up will be continued. Conclusions In this article, we summarize the imaging findings of duplication of the bladder with duplication of the posterior urethra and propose the advantages and disadvantages of each type of imaging examination. We also review the relevant literature on cases of bladders with duplication of the posterior urethra. The related differential diagnosis is summarized, and the significance of guiding clinical treatment and diagnosis is discussed.
