ABSTRACT
Ureterocele is a rare urologic disorder characterized by pseudocystic dilatation of the terminal submucosal ureter. Most cases of ureteroceles are associated with complete ureteral duplicity and ureterohydronephrosis, whereas ureteroceles on simplex ureters are rarer. The authors report two cases of bilateral ureteroceles on simplex ureters diagnosed prenatally at 30 and 32weeks gestation. Fetal ultrasound had revealed bilateral ureterohydronephrosis. The delivery was made at term and renal function was normal at birth. Radiological and isotopic studies of the urinary tract confirmed the diagnosis of bilateral ureteroceles on simplex ureters that were obstructive in one case and not obstructive in the other case. Both cases had urinary antiseptic treatment and neither had urinary infection. Endoscopic puncture with electrocoagulation of ureteroceles was performed at 8 and 14months of age, respectively, with a simple postoperative course. Prenatal diagnosis of ureteroceles is essential to plan early multidisciplinary care to avoid long-term renal consequences.
