Abstract

Prostatic utricle may present as big cystic mass and may mimic ureteral diverticulum. A giant prostatic utricle may be asymptomatic with proximal hypospadias with undescended testis. We are describing a case which was operated twice for hypospadias and then came to us with recurrent penoscrotal hypospadias. On workup giant prostatic utricle was diagnosed and managed.
