Abstract

Congenital urethral polyps are a rare anomaly of the urethra seen primarily in male children that present most commonly with features of voiding dysfunction or urinary obstruction. We report a case of a young boy with a posterior urethral polyp presenting with urinary retention, hematuria, and constipation. We also report a new treatment approach to this rare and challenging clinical finding.
