Posterior urethral valves. Clinical and radiological aspects

ABSTRACT

From the study of 14 cases of posterior urethral valves, the authors recall the different clinical aspects which can reveal this malformation and emphasize the baby form which may be misleading. They therefore note that the child's from is more frequent in their series which is explained by the usual diagnostic delay, and the ignoring of this entity. They also recall the modalities of radiological exploration [intraveinous urography, public cystography and ultrasound] as well as the data of endoscopic and urodynamic explorations
