Magnetic resonance urography in duplex kidney with ectopic ureteral insertion
نویسندگان
چکیده
This is a report on the use of magnetic resonance urography (MRU) in a 6-year-old girl who presented with urinary incontinence. She had a left duplex kidney with poorly functioning upper moiety and ectopic insertion of the dilated upper pole ureter. MRU has been shown to be superior to conventional imaging techniques in delineating poorly functioning moieties of duplex kidneys and ectopic ureters.

Introduction: The prevalence of ectopic ureter (EU) is low and it is usually associated with urinary system duplication. In such cases, incontinence is a major complaint. Case Presentation: We present a case of a female patient that was diagnosed with ectopic ureter opening at the posterior vaginal fornix along with a duplicated pyeloureteral system after a regular diagnostic work-up that turne...

Ectopic insertion of the ureter in the genitourinary tract is a rare congenital disorder, usually associated with ureteral duplication. Identification of the insertion open is critical for ureteric re-implantation. However, the challenge in the diagnosis of ectopic insertion of the ureter usually is to identify its insertion, particularly when the affected ureter is not dilated. Multi-detector ...
