A 3-year-old male child was admitted with complaints of dysuria and dribbling of urine since birth. There was a small plum sized swelling, on the ventral surface of penis, which increased in size during micturition and on compression of the swelling urine dribbled out. Voiding cysto-urethrogram showed posterior urethral valves with scaphoid megalo-urethra. Vesicostomy with fulguration of the valves and one year later reduction urethroplasty were performed.
