Abstract

To date, the unilateral single vaginal ectopic ureter has been regarded as the rarest form of ureteral ectopia because 80 per cent of all ectopic ureters are associated with a duplicated system and most of the ectopic ureters occur in male patients. This malformation may take the form of but is not limited to any ombination of abnormal development of the mesonephric and paramesonephric ducts. We report a case of unilateral single vaginal ectopic ureter with ipsilateral hypoplastic kidney in a 9 year-old female patient who has been suffered from diaper dermatitis due to persistent urinary incontinence since birth.
