Adult Posterior Urethral Valve: a Case Report of the Oldest Known Patient

A posterior urethral valve (PUV ) is a congenital obstructive defect of the male urethra, and sometimes maybe lifethreatening. The diagnosis of PUV is usually made early because of its symptoms and has rarely been diagnosedin adults for the first time in life. Here we report a rare case of an adult PUV in a 67 year-old man with 40 yearshistory of urinary obstruction complaints with coincidence type 1 and 2 of PUV who underwent transurethralresection of the bladder neck and valve ablation. After 6 months follow-up, no evidence of urinary obstructionobserved.
