We report here a case of unilateral left bifid ureter encountered during cadaveric dissection. single or bifid ureter (Incomplete duplication) or double ureter (complete duplication). Two renal pelvises and two ureters entering the bladder separately are referred to as complete duplicated ureter, and two renal pelvises and two ureters that merge just proximal to the ureterovesical junction are referred to as incomplete duplicated ureter. Bilateral incomplete double ureters Bilateral incomplete double ureters. Material and Methods: 12 patients of duplicated ureter with VUR were chosen during the period of four years, to revise the therapeutic options of the VUR in duplicity. The ureter is subjected to natural variation such as duplication. Duplicated ureter or Duplex Collecting System is a congenital condition in which the ureteric bud, the embryological origin of the ureter, splits (or arises twice), resulting in two ureters draining a single kidney. Duplicated ureter is found in 5% of urinary tract malformations. The additional ureter may result in a ureterocele, or an ectopic ureter.
Duplicated ureter or Duplex Collecting System is a congenital condition in which the ureteric bud, the embryological origin of the ureter, splits (or arises twice), resulting in two ureters draining a single kidney. Forth, for a small number of patients with incomplete duplicate kidney and ureter malformations, the stricture could exist at the bifurcation of the double ureter. Age ranged from 11 months to23 years. The bifidity in the present case was at its greater extent and in the form of Y shaped with superior and inferior segments. duplicated urinary system, observing its indications according to the different clinical entity.

It is the most common renal abnormality, occurring in approximately 1% of the popula The male to female ratio was: 1:5. Duplicated ureter is commonly The partial duplication forming bifidity is one of its rare congenital anomalies. The upper kidney and ureter are usually lean inward and downward, while the lower kidney and ureter are usually located outward.

It is theorised that duplication is environmentally influenced or genetically driven, determined by incomplete penetrance of an autosomal dominant trait [6,7]. ... Duplicated Renal System with H Shaped Ureter: An Extraordinary Anomaly Duplicated Renal System with H Shaped Ureter: An Extraordinary Anomaly. Duplication of ureter may remain asymptomatic or it may cause repeated urinary tract infection, calculi or may get injured during pelvic surgeries. Case Report As depicted in our image, there is an ectopic duplex ureter arising from the left renal pelvis which communicates with the original ureter as they descend below the renal vessels.
It is the most common renal abnormality, occurring in approximately 1% of the population.
