Unilateral duplex collecting system with incomplete duplication of ureter - a case report

Abstract

Duplex collecting system is presence of two pelvicalyceal system which is associated with single or double ureter. Bifid ureter is one of the variations related to congenital anomalies of urinary system which are many times an incidental finding. A bifid ureter may be found in association with other congenital anomalies and defects. In the present case report, we present a case of bifid ureter with duplex collecting system and with no other associated congenital anomaly. The embryological and clinical correlations of duplex collecting system are discussed in present paper.
