Giant prostatic utricle associated with proximal hypospadias: repair by mucosa divesting and muscular tunnel obliteration.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Congenital diaphragmatic hernia (CDH) affects 1 in 3000 live births. Modern management strategies include delayed repair of the diaphragm to permit pre-operative optimization of cardiorespiratory status. We describe a cohort of neonates in whom early emergency operative intervention was required for potentia...
