Summary:

Description
  • Radiopaedia case ID: 60831
  • Image ID: 39508679
  • Image stack position: 22/136
  • Plane projection: Axial
  • Aux modality: C+ portal venous phase
  • Modality: CT
  • System: Urogenital
  • Findings: Incidental bilateral duplex collecting systems. The left lower pole renal pelvis is mildly dilated (unchanged from prior studies). The left sided pelvises fuse to form a single ureter at the PUJ. The right sided abnormality is more subtle (and missed on initial reading). The lower pole pelvis does not fuse with the upper pole, with a thin tube coming close to the main ureter at the level of the aortic bifurcation. The ureters run adjacent to each other, but are still discrete, into the bladder. No ureterocele, single ureteric orifice suspected but no delayed/urographic phase. Remaining structures unremarkable; sigmoid diverticulosis.
