Abstract

A case of congenital segmental giant megaureter is reported. The patient presented with an asymptomatic abdominal mass resulting from the megaureter. A mildly hydronephrotic ipsilateral kidney was palpable as a separate mass. The ureter proximal and distal to the dilated segment showed normal peristaltic activity. Treatment consisted of excision of the dilated segment, with end-to-end ureteric anastomosis.
