Abstract

Objective The purpose of this article is to study the role of magnetic resonance urography (MRU) in single-system ureteral ectopia with congenital renal dysplasia in children. Materials and Methods Patients of incontinence with an otherwise normal voiding pattern were investigated by MRU and conventional radiology. All the patients underwent laparoscopic nephroureterectomy after MRU. Results Magnetic resonance urography picked up the dysplastic moieties and their location as well as functional status and also depicted the course of the ectopic ureter in all the 7 patients. Conclusion Magnetic resonance urography is the better method of investigation for the diagnosis of this condition than conventional radiologic investigations and renal scan.
