Article Synopsis
- Duplicated renal collecting systems are common congenital abnormalities, but cases involving ectopic obstructive megaureters in adults are rare, as shown by a case of a 72-year-old man presenting with fever and acute pyelonephritis.
- The patient was diagnosed with a left complete duplex system and underwent urine drainage via a percutaneous nephrostomy tube, leading to improvement without the need for extensive surgery due to his multiple health issues.
- The discussion emphasizes the importance of early identification and treatment of such conditions, suggesting urologists should be aware of this unique anomaly.
