  "abstract": "Posterior urethral valve (PUV) is a rare congenital cause of bladder outlet obstruction that is infrequently diagnosed in adults. We report a rare case of late-presenting posterior urethral valve with secondary polypoid urethritis in a 32-year-old man presenting with recurrent urinary retention. Ultrasonography was inconclusive, whereas cystoscopy identified an obstructing posterior urethral valve, which was treated by transurethral endoscopic resection. Histopathology demonstrated secondary reactive polypoid urethritis without malignancy. The patient remained symptom-free at one-month follow-up. Adult PUV should be considered in recurrent urinary retention with inconclusive investigations, and early cystoscopy may prevent delayed diagnosis and treatment.",
