Abstract

Urethral diverticulum is rarely encountered in male patients. Although postmicturition dribble, pain and infection are usually present, infertility is rarely reported in urethral diverticulum. We present a case with urethral diverticulum associated with infertility, which was diagnosed radiologically.
