Abstract
|
|
|
Prenatal ultrasound represents an accurate and reliable method for the detection of intrauterine anomalies. Despite numerous sonographic reports describing fetal renal abnormalities, there has been little mention of the obstructed duplex
anomalies.
Particularly ureterocele, whether associated or not with duplication of the collecting system, can be greatly affected by an early intrauterine diagnosis: Prenatal ultrasonographic diagnosis allow a good diagnostic and therapeutic assessment of
the
patients prior to serious impairment of renal function dueto recurrent urinary tract infections with pyelonephritis, so that in most cases the urological surgeon can opt for a parenchymal conserving procedure.
The authors have experienced a case of bilateral duplex ureter with ureteroceles diagnosed at 32 weeks of pregnancy and report our experience with a brief review of literature.
