- Abstract
Congenital posterior urethral-perineal fistula is an abnormal communication extending from the posterior urethra to the perineal skin. We present the case of an 11-year-old boy who had recurrent febrile urinary tract infections and abnormal dribbling of urine from the perineum. Fistulogram showed a paraescrotal fistula tract, which was then surgically excised. During the 10 months of follow-up, the patient remained asymptomatic without recurrence of urinary pathology.
