Diphallia is a rare condition and can be diagnosed antenatally. In this case, a cyst adjacent to the penis of fetus 1 was detected at the second trimester ultrasound. He was born with diphallia with sagittal duplication (the dorsal glans was smaller than the ventral glans). Both phalluses had distinct and independent urethral meatuses and there were no hypospadias. The prognosis depends on whether it is associated or not with other congenital malformations.
