Abstract

A case of ectopic ureter in a 45 year old woman arising after the onset of stress incontinence is reported. The patient presented complete pyeloureteral duplication with an ectopic ureter whose orifice drained into the proximal urethra. The embryology, diagnostic and therapeutic problems of the case are discussed with emphasis on the tardive appearance of the symptoms.
