Abstract


Acquired urethral diverticula in male patients are a rare finding. We report a case of a 70-year male with a past medical history of type 2 diabetes who presented with post micturition dribbling and a scrotal mass which was identified as a urethral diverticulum. We also outline the surgical management in this patient and review similar cases reported in the literature.
