چکیده

Posterior urethral valve is common congenital cause of lower urinary tract obstruction leading to chronic renal damage. Anterior urethral valve although 7 times less common compared to the former but can lead to similar outcome. There are various case reports suggesting concomitant anterior and posterior urethral obstruction. We are reporting a 2-year-old boy with anterior urethral diverticulum in two places. A high index of suspicion and a thorough micturating cystourethrogram is a key in successful management of the condition.
