    Summary

    Bilateral single ureteral ectopia, a rare congenital anomaly, affects children with urinary issues. Surgical treatments address associated hydroureteronephrosis, reflux, and incontinence.

    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Urology
    • Congenital Anomalies
    • Urinary Tract Development

    Background:

    • Bilateral single ureteral ectopia is an uncommon congenital urinary tract anomaly.
    • Understanding its embryological basis is crucial for diagnosis and management.

    Observation:

    • Three pediatric cases (1 male, 2 females) of bilateral single ureteral ectopia were analyzed.
    • Patients presented with varying degrees of hydroureteronephrosis, vesicoureteral reflux, and urinary incontinence.

    Findings:

    • The study emphasizes the embryology of ureteral ectopia, focusing on distal ureteral and trigonal development.
    • Surgical interventions were tailored to address the specific complications observed in each child.

    Implications:

    • This case series highlights the importance of recognizing and surgically managing bilateral single ureteral ectopia in children.
    • Effective surgical techniques can resolve associated urinary tract pathologies and improve patient outcomes.
