| Abstract: | For the first time two cases of an unusual congenital malformation are described. Both patients had an isolated defect at the median raphe covered by colonic mucosa extending from a hypospadiac urethral orifice to the anal orifice. After a thorough review of the embryology, the authors designate this anomaly as exstrophy of the urorectal septum.Offprint requests to: A. N. Gangopadhyay |
