Popis: Bilateral single system ectopic ureters are a rare entity in paediatric urology. We report a girl child with bilateral single system ectopic ureters with right system opening into the vagina, who presented at 3.5 years with continuous dribbling of urine & a small capacity bladder. Renal scans and MRI were done which indicated bilateral single system ectopic ureters with hydroureteronephrosis. We managed her surgically by a right nephro-ureterectomy, bladder augmentation, left ureteric reimplantation and Mitrofanoff. Post op patient had acute on chronic renal failure, stabalised by haemodialysis. It is a rare presentation if managed promptly can prevent renal replacement therapy.
