Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Medical Case Reports
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • Renal collecting system duplication is a congenital anomaly.
  • Ureteral duplication anomalies vary in presentation and clinical significance.

Observation:

  • A unique case of renal collecting system duplication is presented.
  • This specific anomaly involved a single calyx drained by a single ureter.

Findings:

  • The reported case features a duplication of the renal collecting system.
  • A second, previously unreported, ureter draining a single calyx was identified.

Implications:

  • This finding expands the known spectrum of renal collecting system anomalies.
  • Further investigation into the embryological basis of such rare duplications is warranted.
