Ureteric ectopy in children

B Gill

    British Journal of Urology

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    This review of ectopic ureters found that single ectopic ureters often occur with other congenital anomalies. A 99mTc-DMSA renal scan aids in diagnosing poorly functioning kidneys associated with ectopic ureters.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Pediatric Urology
    • Nephrology

    Background:

    • Ectopic ureters are a congenital anomaly where the ureter does not enter the bladder at the normal location.
    • They can be associated with single or duplex kidney systems.
    • Diagnosis can be challenging, especially when symptoms mimic other conditions.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review cases of ectopic ureters.
    • To differentiate between single ectopic ureters and those associated with duplex systems.
    • To highlight diagnostic challenges and helpful imaging modalities.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective review of 28 cases of ectopic ureters.
    • Classification into single ectopic ureters and those with duplex systems.
    • Analysis of diagnostic imaging, including excretion urography and 99mTc-DMSA renal scan.

    Main Results:

    • Single ectopic ureters showed a high incidence of associated congenital anomalies.
    • Dilated ectopic ureters can present with symptoms similar to ectopic ureteroceles.
    • 99mTc-DMSA renal scan identified poorly functioning kidneys not detected by excretion urography.

    Conclusions:

    • Ectopic ureters require careful evaluation, particularly single ectopic ureters due to associated anomalies.
    • Imaging plays a crucial role in diagnosis and management.
    • 99mTc-DMSA renal scan is valuable for assessing renal function in ectopic ureter cases.
