A low-lying umbilicus was present (figure 1A, B). Meatotomy was performed because of the stenotic meatus (figure 1C, D).

The anatomy of the bladder was studied preoperatively via contrast study, although the bladder was open and not holding the contrast, so proper VCUG (voiding cystourethrogram) was not possible to perform at that time (figure 2).
