title: Blind-ending bifid ureters--report of five pediatric cases.
abstract: We report 5 cases of blind-ending ureters according to Culp's criteria. Occurrence of vesicoureteral reflux allowed us to make the diagnosis of retrograde cystography in all our patients. We wish to emphasize that this procedure must be done as the first step of urinary tract examination in children.
