Popis: One of the rarest anomalies of the renal collecting system is ureteral triplication along with the presence of a complex ureteral cyst. We describe an unusual case of a 37-year-old man who presented with fever and abdominal pain. Computed tomography urography (CTU) revealed triplication of the ureter in association with renal ectopia and a ureteral cyst which was complicated by calculi formation. Following treatment with antibiotics, the patient was managed by open ureterolithotomy with resection of the ureteral cyst and tailoring of the ureter.
