    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Pediatric Urology
    • Surgical Pathology

    Background:

    • Single ectopic ureters are congenital anomalies where the ureter bypasses the bladder.
    • Vaginal ectopic ureters, a subset of this condition, present unique clinical challenges.
    • Associated renal dysplasia is a common comorbidity, impacting patient prognosis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present clinicopathological features of single ectopic ureters.
    • To describe surgical management strategies for this condition.
    • To highlight the association with renal dysplasia and emphasize complete ureteral stump excision.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective case series analysis.
    • Review of clinicopathological data from 21 patients.
    • Surgical technique documentation focusing on ectopic ureteral stump excision.

    Main Results:

    • 17 female and 4 male patients were identified.
    • 9 patients presented with vaginal ectopic ureters.
    • Successful surgical management included complete excision of the ectopic ureteral stump.

    Conclusions:

    • Single ectopic ureters, particularly those draining to the vagina, require careful surgical consideration.
    • Complete excision of the ectopic ureteral stump is crucial for optimal outcomes.
    • While rare in Western literature, vaginal ectopic ureters appear more prevalent in Japan.
