Sumario:Ectopic ureter is defined as any ureter, single or duplex, that does not open in the trigonal region of the bladder. A 19-years-old girl was presented with urinary incontinence. Physical examination revealed a normal urethral meatus with pooling of urine at the introitus. A Kidney-Ureter-Bladder ultrasound revealed a duplex-system suspicion on the right side. The patient was managed by laparoscopic heminephrectomy of right ureter. The uterus gains its normal shape and sized without any fluid filling after the operative being completed. In conclusion, a complete diagnostic work up is important to achieve better prognosis and early treatment.
