Though Klippel-Feil syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly and the clinical presentations are varied, a complete history, physical and radiological examinations may reveal the diagnosis.

Duplication of the urethra is a rare congenital anomaly. Urethral duplication with the presence of diverticulum is a rare combination and to the best of our knowledge has  not been previously reported. We report a case of a 16 month old male child with duplication of the urethra and diverticulum arising from the ventral urethra. We also cover the intricacies and challenges in the management of such a case.The opening of the narrowed accessory dorsal urethra at the verumontanum was cauterized and gradually the dorsal urethra became atrophied. The ventral urethral diverticulum was excised. This case is unique due to:The unusual presentation of swelling over the dorsum of the penis, together with duplication of the urethra with diverticulum.The use of cauterization as a treatment modality. Cauterization of the ventral urethra with a Bugbee electrode and diverticulectomy was performed. A glidewire helped in identifying the small opening of the dorsal urethra at the level of the verumontanum. The case also highlights the importance of endoscopic management of this clinical entity.

Sirenomelia or mermaid syndrome is a rare congenital anomaly characterized by variable degree of fusion of lower extremities. Awareness to this rare condition is important for prenatal diagnosis and prognosticating the fetus. The exact etiopathogenesis is still an area of research. Two pathogenic hypotheses are the vascular steal hypothesis and the defective blastogenesis hypothesis with exceptions reported in literature.

Abstract Urethral duplication is a rare congenital anomaly. In addition to a normally urethra, there is an accessory urethra arising from the bladder or the proximal urethra which may open anywhere on the penis or even on the perineum. Many patients with this malformation are asymptomatic. Some patients may complain of intermittent discharge from the accessory urethra, incontinence, infection, double streams or stricture. The duplicated urethra may be complete or incomplete, may be located dorsal, ventral or in Y-type. The treatment of urethral duplication is individualized, depending on the type of malformation. We report two cases of dorsal urethral duplication discovered in two boys.

Double gall bladder is a rare congenital anomaly of the Hepatobiliary system with an incidence of 1:4000 due to abnormalities resulting during the embryogenesis during fourth to sixth week of gestation. Boyden was first to describe the duplication of the gallbladder and Harlaftis classification describes three types for the duplication of the gallbladder. Preoperative diagnosis of the duplication of the gallbladder has to be confirmed to minimise the complications during the surgery and post operatively. Sometimes the duplication of the gallbladder is missed preoperatively and hence increasing the risk and complications during the cholecystectomy. MRCP is the investigation of choice for preoperative diagnosis of the duplication and the laparoscopic cholecystectomy being the treatment of choice for the double gallbladder. We encountered a 25 year old girl with duplicate gallbladder who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy with removal of both gallbladders successfully.

This is a case report of a neonate who was antenatally diagnosed with jejunal atresia which turned out to be duodenal atresia with apple peel syndrome. A previous sibling, who also had apple peel but with jejunal atresia, succumbed to sepsis after surgery. The first sibling had jejunal stenosis and had died of sepsis following surgery. Combination of duodenal atresia with apple peel is extremely rare. This coupled with a familial condition is rarer still. This case was challenging due to the short length of the gut and prolonged need for total parenteral nutrition and sepsis in postoperative period.

Congenital metacarpal synostosis is a rare congenital anomaly in the hand, especially in our area. There were several reports of surgical techniques for correction deformities. We report this rare condition in our hospital and treatment with the metacarpal osteotomy and double bone blocks technique of grafting.
