Abstract:
Among developmental abnormalities of the upper urinary tracts, duplication of the upper urinary tract is a relatively common finding, while triplication of the pelvis and ureter is a rare finding. Furthermore, quadruplication of the upper urinary tract is exceedingly unusual. We present a case of unilateral incomplete quadruplicated ureter that was associated with ipsilateral ectopic ureteral orifice and renal dysplasia.
