ABSTRACT
Congenital prepubic sinus is an exceptional disorder of uncertain origin. These sinuses may represent a variant of epispadiac duplication or dorsal urethral duplication of the urethra.We present a case of isolated blind ending prepubic congenital sinus in a 5-year-old male child; which revealed transitional epithelium lining proximally; and squamous epithelium distally. This entity presents with either an opening in the prepubic region and/or persistent mucoid discharge. Excision leads to a permanent cure
