Inverted-Y Ureteric Duplication With Paraureteric Diverticulum Presenting With Bladder Outlet Obstruction in an Infant- A Diagnostic Dilemma.

ABSTRACT

The ectopic ureter and paraureteric diverticulum are 2 known common urological anomalies of pediatric patients. Another rare entity is inverted-Y ureteric duplication. We report a case of a 3-month-old boy presented with bladder outlet obstruction, where surgical excision of large bladder diverticulum with left ureter and small kidney was done. Histopathology confirmed the presence of inverted-Y ureteric duplication with left dysplastic kidney. The report defines the first case of infantile bladder outlet obstruction having the co-existing congenital genitourinary anomaly of inverted Y-partial ureteric duplication with obstructive ectopic ureter and ipsilateral paraureteric diverticula.
