Concealed epispadias: a rare anomaly - case report and review

Epispadias with an intact prepuce (Concealed Epispadias) is an uncommon anomaly. The specific clinical signs in this situation are broad, spade-like glans with a dorsally directed preputial opening, gap between the corpora cavernosa may be palpable, dorsal chordee and abnormalities of the penile raphae. We report the case of a 3 year old male child with Concealed Epispadias who underwent a modified Cantwell-Ransley operation with good outcome. The relevant anatomy, embryology and surgical options are reviewed.
