Dyschromatosis universalis hereditaria (DUH) is a rare genodermatosis, which presents as hyper- and hypopigmented macules all over the body. Although a benign condition, rarely DUH is associated with abnormalities of dermal connective tissue, nerve, and systemic conditions. We report a case of DUH associated hypospadias and complicated with hydronephrosis that has not been described earlier.
