Abstract

Isolated congenital urethrocutaneous fistula is uncommon, and its repair has been associated with high incidence of recurrence. However, the use of buccal mucosal graft offers a satisfactory closure after previous failures. We report a new case in whom we adopted the buccal mucosal urethral replacement to treat the recurrence.
