Patient Data
Age: 25 years
Gender: Male
From the case:
Ectopic ureter with massive hydroureter and renal atrophy




Download
Info

Ectopic insertion of the left ureter into the prostatic urethra, probably via the left seminal vesicle. Massive left hydroureter and hydronephrosis with very little renal tissue remaining. Normal right kidney.
Case Discussion
The patient was continent, so presumably the insertion is above the external urethral sphincter. Ectopic ureters are commonly associated with duplex kidneys and VACETRL abnormalities.
