Epispadias (https://homosaurus.org/v3/homoit0002836)
- People with epispadias are born with a urinary opening located on the upper surface of their penis rather than at the tip (similar to the more common variation hypospadias). People with vulvas can also be born with epispadias, in which case the urethral opening is wider and located higher than typical. The clitoris may also be split into two halves. Epispadias is usually present whenever bladder exstrophy or cloacal exstrophy develop, but epispadias can also occur by itself.
