Summary
Continuous leakage of urine despite simultaneous normal micturition can be a sign of an ectopic ureter in girls. The case of 6 year old girl who suffered from continuous daylight and night time urine leakage is reported. Diagnosis and treatment of the child was done at the Clinic of paediatric urology. In diagnostics, we used sonography, excretory urography, cystoscopy, vaginoscopy and retrograde ureteropyelography. We found a rarely occurring triplex ureter on the left side and a sub-sphincteric ectopic ureter – with outlet into urethra. It was a case of ureteric incontinence. As a therapeutic approach, we chose hemiureteronephrectomy. In girl stopped urine leakage after surgery.
KEY WORDS:
Ectopic ureter, continuous leakage of urine, ureter triplex, ureteric incontinence.
