title: Bilateral ureteropelvic junction obstructions in newborn identical twins.
abstract: Identical twin black females were born with bilateral ureteropelvic junction obstructions. Dismembered pyeloplasties performed in the neonatal period have apparently been successful. Although a tendency for bilaterality is more frequently reported in early infancy, the authors are unaware of a similar occurrence reported in identical twins.
