    Unduplicated ectopic ureters in children often present with other congenital abnormalities, complicating diagnosis and treatment. Early recognition is key to managing associated renal and lower urinary tract issues for better outcomes.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Urology
    • Congenital Abnormalities
    • Surgical Management

    Background:

    • Unduplicated ectopic ureters are rare congenital anomalies.
    • Associated anomalies of the genitourinary and lower urinary tract are common.
    • These anomalies can mask the presentation of ureteric ectopia.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present the clinico-pathological features of unduplicated ectopic ureters in children.
    • To discuss the surgical management challenges and outcomes.
    • To highlight the significance of associated abnormalities.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 19 cases of unduplicated ectopic ureters in 15 children.
    • Analysis of clinico-pathological findings.
    • Evaluation of surgical interventions and outcomes.

    Main Results:

    • High incidence of ipsilateral and contralateral renal and ureteric malformations.
    • Frequent co-existence of vesical, bladder neck, urethral, genital, and anal abnormalities.
    • Late diagnosis is common due to masked presentation.

    Conclusions:

    • Associated anomalies significantly impact presentation, diagnosis, and prognosis.
    • Kidney involvement guides surgical priorities.
    • Lower urinary tract anomalies are critical for long-term continence and disability.
