Posterior urethral polyps in infants and children. 1985

M Youssif

Two cases of posterior urethral polyps are reported. The literature was reviewed in regard to its frequency, origin, pathology, clinical presentations and treatment. It is considered that it is a non-neoplastic congenital defect. Because of its obstructive qualities, it is of clinical significance and should be considered as a separate entity in the evaluation of young boys with lower urinary tract symptoms.
