Abstract EN
Anterior congenital urethrocutaneous fistula is a rare anomaly that may present in an isolated fashion or in association with other anomalies of the genital urinary tract or anorectal malformations.
A case of congenital anterior urethrocutaneous fistula nonassociated with other congenital anomalies in a 3-year-old male whose mother has been exposed to Chernobyl's nuclear fallout is described.
The patient was successfully operated with no recurrence.
We report a review of the literature about etiology and surgical strategy including the role of ionizing radiations.
The congenital anterior urethrocutaneous fistula represents a rare malformation.
The etiopathogenesis is unknown.
