- Abstract
Aphallia or complete absence of penis is an extremely rare genitourinary anomaly derived from a faulty development of the genital tubercle during embryonic life. It usually coexists with other congenital anomalies. This anomaly has a very significant psychosocial impact on the child and parents. Today, there is more interest to repair their external genital structure towards their genotype (male). However, low prevalence of these disease and lack of physicians' experiences requires further researches. We describe herewith a neonate with male genotype presented with aphallia and multiple anomalies of musculoskeletal and genitourinary system.
