Abstract

Objectives: The possible solutions to a case of ureteral duplication complicated by obstruction of one of the collecting systems are reviewed.<br />Methods/results: We report an uncommon case of ureteropelvic junction obstruction in the lower system of an incomplete duplication of the collecting systems that was resolved by pyeloureterostomy.<br />Conclusions: Anastomosis of the lower renal pelvis to the upper ureter may provide a simple solution for the functional recovery of an important renal segment.
