Abstract

Obstructive lesions of the genitourinary tract are amongst the most common ultrasound verdicts in Obstetric ultrasonography. Numerous anomalies of lower urinary tract leading to obstructive uropathy have been established in literatures, either isolated of urethra or in combination with other syndromes like Prune-belly syndrome or anorectal malformation. Posterior urethral valves (PUVs) are exclusive to males and by far the most common cause of lower urinary tract obstruction (LUTO); the reported incidence is 1 per 8,000 to 1 per 25,000 live births
