more
A diverticulum (plural: diverticula) is medical term for an outpouching of a hollow (or a fluid filled) structure in the body. Its use implies that the structure is not normally present, although embryologically, some normal structures begin development as a diverticulum arising off of another structure (for example, the lungs begin as a diverticulum forming off of the ventral foregut).
Urethral diverticulum: congenital in males, post-infectious in females.
