Congenital urogenital anomalies that are associated with the persistence of Gartner's duct: A review

MRI of female urethra and periurethral pathologies

“…5). Other congenital urogenital anomalies, such as ureteric ectopia and renal agenesis, may be associated with Gartner-duct cysts [17]. Single-shot, T2W, coronal images through the entire abdomen and pelvis may help identify coexisting renal anomalies.…”

Y-type partial duplication of a vaginal ectopic ureter with ipsilateral hypoplastic pelvic kidney and bicornuate uterus

“…During gestation, abnormal development of the mesonephric (wolffian) and paramesonephric (mullerian) ductal systems results in ureteric ectopia, which subsequently leads to the maldevelopment, absence, or ectopia of the ipsilateral kidney. (1,2) this is, to the best of our knowledge, the first report of the concurrent coexistence of all of these anomalies in an individual. ABSTRACT We present a case of vaginal ectopic ureter with ipsilateral partial duplication of the upper ureter (Y-type ureter), ipsilateral hypoplastic pelvic kidney and bicornuate uterus in a 20-year-old woman, who presented with mild urinary incontinence since infancy.…”

Congenital vesicovaginal fistula with transverse vaginal septum and ectopic ureter opening in proximal vagina: case report and brief review

“…The embryologic abnormality occurs in the fourth or fifth week of gestation, when the ureteral bud forms and the Müllerian duct in the female fetus starts its medial migration, crossing over the degenerating Wolffian duct (sixth week) on its way to differentiating into the Fallopian tube, uterine horn and body, and proximal vagina [2]. Abnormal development of the ureter causes ectopic placement of the ureter and maldevelopment or absence of the ipsilateral kidney [3,4], as is in our case.…”
