The condition described, where a little girl is born with a hole in the wrong place on the urinary meatus, is called Epispadias. Epispadias is a congenital condition where the urinary meatus (the opening through which urine passes) is located on the upper surface of the penis or, in females, on the clitoris. This is in contrast to the typical location on the tip of the penis or the urethra in females. Epispadias is a rare condition and is typically addressed through surgical intervention to correct the positioning of the urinary meatus.
