CONGENITAL MALFORMATIONS. Congenital malformations of the urethra are among the rarest gynecologicalaffections. The commonest is a distinct lateral displacement of the externalorifice, generally about 2 mm., to one or the other side. A shallow verticalfissure corresponding to the urethral orifice may be found on the opposite sidewith a sharp ridge between the two; this gives the appearance of a doubleurethral orifice. Most malformations of practical importance are due to a deficiency of thedevelopment of some part of the urethral canal.
