    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Congenital Abnormalities

    Background:

    • Blind-ending bifid ureter is an exceptionally rare congenital anomaly of the genitourinary system.
    • This condition can manifest with symptoms such as recurrent urinary tract infections and ipsilateral flank pain.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To highlight the diagnostic approach and successful management of symptomatic blind-ending bifid ureter.

    Main Methods:

    • Diagnostic suspicion arises from intravenous pyelogram findings.
    • Confirmation requires a retrograde ureteropyelogram to visualize the blind-ending segment.

    Main Results:

    • Retrograde ureteropyelography effectively demonstrates the characteristic blind-ending segment.
    • Surgical excision of the affected segment provides successful symptomatic relief.

    Conclusions:

    • Blind-ending bifid ureter, though rare, requires specific diagnostic imaging.
    • Prompt surgical intervention is effective for managing symptomatic cases.
