An unusual presentation of anterior urethral valve in a child with diabetes mellitus

Journal Title: Indian Journal of Case Reports - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 4

Abstract

Anterior urethral valve (AUV) is identified to be a common source of congenital obstructive lesion of the anterior urethra. Up to 80% of children with AUVs develop bladder dysfunction, bladder instability, hyperreflexia, diminished compliance and capacity. We report a case of an unusual presentation of a child with AUV and diabetes mellitus.
