We report the fifth case in the English literature of a horseshoe kidney with a complete ureteral duplication. Our case is unique in that the previous four cases occurred in the presence of a ureterocele, whereas our patient lacked this anomaly. Further, our patient was managed conservatively, whereas the previous four patients were managed with surgery.

Tubular adenoma of the urinary tract is a recently recognized entity, and there is a paucity of clinicopathological information. We describe 2 rare cases of adenocarcinoma of upper urinary tract arising in the background of tubular adenoma with high-grade dysplasia. The first case was an extremely uncommon combination of multifocal tubular adenomas involving ureter and renal pelvis and adenocarcinoma of kidney in a patient with renal calculi. The second case was of adenocarcinoma of kidney arising from tubular adenoma of renal pelvis in the right moiety of horseshoe kidney. There was no microsatellite instability. These findings indicate, probably, an adenoma-carcinoma pathway is also followed in the urinary tract similar to the gastrointestinal tract. To the best of our knowledge, no such observations are reported in the English literature previously.

Complete Duplication

Upper urinary tract abnormalities are relatively common and may be diagnosed before or at birth. Some cases will be seen during complications that most often are obstructive. We herein report one case of complete right ureter duplication revealed by sepsis. The case involved one little girl aged 3 years, referred from a peripheral health center for prolonged fever. Physical examination found out a right flank mass connecting with the lumbar spine, renal ballottement, and pain due to a blow to the right flank. Further explorations helped establish the diagnosis of complete duplication of the right ureter with the destruction of the upper renal pelvis. Little girl benefitted from a dual antibiotic therapy combined with partial nephrectomy of the right kidney upper pole. Infectious are serious complications in upper urinary tract obstructions resulting in kidney destruction; therefore, early diagnosis is required.

AbstractSirenomelia, or the Mermaid Syndrome, is a very rare congenital anomaly. It is associated with varying degrees of fusion of lower limb bones, giving them the appearance of a “mermaid.” It is almost always associated with other birth defects, such as, renal abnormalities, genital anomalies, and cardiac anomalies. We report a case of sirenomelia associated with bilateral multicystic dysplastic kidneys along with bilateral hydronephrosis, severe oligohydramnios, single umbilical artery, absent anal opening, and absent genitals. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case to be reported from our region.

Ectopic Ureters

A 5-month-old domestic shorthair cat was presented for evaluation of urinary incontinence since birth. Excretory urography revealed dilated double ectopic ureters draining a hydronephrotic right kidney. Urine culture yielded a pure culture of Klebsiella pneumoniae. The cat was treated initially with bactericidal antibiotics, followed by right-sided nephroureterectomy. The surgery and antibiotic therapy led to complete resolution of urinary incontinence and urinary tract infection. Ureteral duplication is an unusual congenital anomaly that has not been previously reported in the cat.

Bladder duplication is a rare congenital anomaly which occurs in the sagittal or coronal plane and it can be associated with other anomalies. It has been previously classified as complete duplication of the bladder and urethra or incomplete duplication with two bladders and common urethra. However, complete duplication of bladder with a single urethra has been rarely reported. Herein, we present a patient with a different variation of bladder duplication in the coronal plane with two urethras originating from the main bladder and associated glans diphallia.

Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XGP) is a destructive inflammatory process which is frequently caused by recurrent urinary tract infections or chronic obstruction by kidney stones. We present a 56-year-old female with an extensive retroperitoneal urinoma and xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis of the lower pole moiety in a kidney with a duplicated collecting system due to obstructive nephrolithiasis. After drainage of the urinoma, the patient underwent a definitive lower pole heminephrectomy with preservation of the functional upper pole. We review important clinical features of xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis and considerations for surgery on a duplicated kidney.

The urogenital system is more likely to have birth defects than any other system. Of all the urinary tract anomalies, Double ureter is the most common one. It may be incomplete (bind ureter) or complete duplication. In order to collect data for this various medical colleges were approached & 120 cadaveric kidney pairs were examined for the presence or absence of double ureters. It was found that 02 out of all examined kidney pairs were showing this anomaly. One pair was having bilateral double ureters while other was showing right sided ureteric duplication.
