Ectopic Ureters in Siblings

Abstract

We report a case of single system ectopic ureters that developed in siblings. The elder sister had continuous urinary incontinence after toilet training. She had a left dysplastic kidney and a left ectopic ureter which terminated in the vagina. The younger brother presented with febrile urinary tract infection. A small cystic kidney and an ectopic ureter on the left side were detected incidentally. His left ureteral orifice was found in the posterior urethra. The two children underwent nephroureterectomy and the surgical specimens showed renal dysplasia.
