چکیده

A 43-year-old woman was referred to our hospital with complaints of recurrent frequency and lower abdominal discomfort. Her past history was notable for recurrent acute cystitis. Urinalysis showed normal findings. Intravenous urography revealed bilateral ureteric duplication. The right side was shown as partial ureteric duplication, while left side was complete ureteric duplication demonstrating double ureters throughout their entire course without union (Figure 1). However, 3-dimensional CT urography, reconstructed using 16-multidetector computed tomography (CT), demonstrated bilateral incomplete double ureters. The duplicated ureters on the right side joined at the upper proximal part of ureter and duplicated ureters on the left side, put together at just above the ureterovesical junction (Figure 2).
