Report of a clinic case of a double system ectopic ureterocele in an African infant
AbstractWe report on the observation of a 30-month-old female newborn that was treated for a urinary infection. The medical imaging revealed the existence of a right double system ureterocele with vesicorenal reflux on the ureter of the upper pyelon and a bifid left ureter. The treatment consisted in an ureterocelectomy, a reimplantation of the two right ureters and a repair of the vesical floor. The external drainage of the upper pyelon allowed us to make sure of its functionality that was about 15% of the full renal function. The post-op follow-ups have been simple and thirteen months later, the newborn is doing well and does not present any sign of urinary infection
