Bilateral single ureteral ectopia is a rare condition where both ureters connect abnormally. This case report details a male patient with this rare condition, presenting with bilateral megaureter and ectopic ureteral orifices in the prostatic urethra.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Pediatric Urology
  • Medical Case Reports

Background:

  • Bilateral single ureteral ectopia is an extremely rare congenital anomaly.
  • Fewer than 80 cases have been documented globally.
  • Male instances are particularly uncommon, with less than 20 reported cases.

Observation:

  • This report details a unique case of bilateral single ureteral ectopia in a male patient.
  • The patient presented with bilateral megaureter, indicating abnormal ureteral dilation.
  • Ectopic ureteral orifices were observed opening into the prostatic urethra.

Findings:

  • The case highlights a rare anatomical variation in the urinary tract.
  • The co-occurrence of bilateral megaureter and prostatic urethral ectopia is noteworthy.

Related Experiment Videos

  • This presentation offers insights into the spectrum of ureteral ectopia.

    • Implications:

    • Understanding such rare anomalies is crucial for accurate diagnosis and management.
    • This case contributes to the limited literature on male bilateral single ureteral ectopia.
    • Further research may elucidate the embryological basis and clinical significance of these rare presentations.
