VERY RARE CASE OF DISTAL URETERIC DUPLICATION WITH A PROXIMAL BLIND-ENDING BRANCH SHOWING URETERO-URETERIC REFLUX
Journal Title: Journal of Evolution of Medical and Dental Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 5, Issue 61
Abstract
We report a very rare case of unusual pelvic pain, i.e. left ureteral duplication with a blind ending distal branch showing ureteroureteral reflux, also called as yo-yo, saddle, or seesaw reflux. Most of the cases of partial duplication of PCS reported till now involves the calyces, pelvis, and proximal ureter, which fuses and urine from one of them gets into other called as yo-yo reflux [1],[2] . In our case, there is no separate PCS or duplication of proximal part, but bifurcation is seen in the distal end. [3] This entity is very difficult to suspect and diagnose clinically. We illustrate the role of Intravenous Urography (IVU) and CT urography in the evaluation of such cases
