Abstract:
Congenital ureteral valves are transeverse folds of redundant mucosa which contains smooth muscle fibers and are very rare disease. We observed one case of congenital ureteral valve in 2-year old boy with hydronephrosis, which was treated by segmental resection and tubeless end-to-end anastomosis of ureter. Herein we reported a case of congenital ureteral valve with a review of the literatures.
