Urethral Diverticulum

"A urethral diverticulum (UD) is a rare condition in which a fluid-filled pocket or sac forms along the urethra, the tube that carries urine out of the body. The exact cause is still unknown, but it may be associated with multiple bladder infections. The symptoms can include pain, frequent urinary tract infections, blood in the urine, or incontinence. Surgery is the choice of treatment to treat the urethral diverticulum.
