Diagnosis and surgical outcomes of ectopic ureters in adults: A case series and literature review

Urinary Incontinence in Adulthood in a Course of Ectopic Ureter-Description of Two Clinical Cases with Review of Literature

Urinary tract pathologies are the most common congenital abnormalities. Duplex colleting system occurs at different stages of completion and is usually asymptomatic. Ureteral ectopia is an associated anomaly which may manifest as continuous incontinence. The aim of this article is to present two patients with duplex kidney and ureteral ectopia. Both patients presented symptoms of continuous urinary incontinence and became symptomatic in the adult life.

The ectopic ureter opening into the vulva, which is a rare cause of lifelong urinary incontinence: Treatment with ureteroureterostomy

Persistent urinary incontinence (UI) in adults may indicate a congenital anomaly. Before initiating medical treatment in these patients, a detailed physical examination is necessary for establishing an accurate diagnosis. In this study, we report on a patient who presented with the complaint of congenital UI associated with ectopic ureter and was detected with a right complete duplex collecting system and a ureter opening into the vulva and the surgical treatment applied to that patient.

Minimally invasive transurethral laser incision for management of ectopic ureter orifice stenosis in adult patient

The aim of this report is to present our experience of performing transurethral laser incision for management of ectopic ureter orifice stenosis in adult patient. A 61-year-old male was presented with right flank pain. Computed tomography urography showed right complete double collecting system, upper moiety hydroureteronephrosis, and parenchymal thinning of the upper moiety. Cystoscopy showed right ectopic ureter orifice on the prostatic part of the urethra. Transurethral laser incision was performed at the 12 o'clock position of the stenotic orifice with Thulium laser. This report showed that transurethral laser incision was a minimally invasive procedure with good result.
