ABSTRACT
In paediatrics patients, congenital anomalies of the ureter are responsible for a significant cause of morbidity. Judicial application of radiological investigations like ultrasonography, intravenous urography, micturating cystourethrogram, computed tomography, MR urography and nuclear imaging play an important role in management. Cystotourethrovaginoscopy is used to localise the site of ectopic insertion and evaluation of bladder. Antenatal diagnosis and early treatment of ectopic ureter can give better chances of renal salvage. We report a rare case of unilateral single system ectopic right ureter inserting into the vaginal vestibule in female infant with the severely compromised cortical function of the right kidney.
