Anterior Urethral Valve and Anterior Urethral Diverticulum with an Intradiverticular Stone: A Case Report and a Literature Review. J Urol Surg 2018;5(2):109-111. ©Copyright 2018 by the Association of Urological Surgery / Journal of Urological Surgery published by Galenos Publishing House. Anterior urethral valve (AUV) is a rare but well-defined congenital anomaly. AUV can be isolated or occur in association with anterior urethral diverticulum (AUD). Here, we present the first pediatric case report of AUV and AUD which is complicated with an intradiverticular stone. We also review the literature involving AUV with AUD cases.
