title: Ultrasonic detection of single ectopic ureter inserted into the urethra in girls: report of two cases.
abstract: Two girls, each with a single ectopic ureter inserted into the proximal urethra, are reported. Abdominal ultrasonography showed that the involved kidneys were small and hydronephrotic. The associated ureters were dilated and opened into the proximal urethra. Diagnosis was confirmed by voiding cystourethrogram.
