title: Complete duplication of the bladder and urethra: a case report and review of the literature.
abstract: Although complete duplication of the bladder and urethra (CBDU) has been considered to be an isolated anomaly, the present report involves an infant who had CBDU and associated anomalies of the gastrointestinal and central nervous systems. Clarification of the upper-tract renal anatomy is mandatory in planning a staged approach to reconstruction, especially in the presence of associated anomalies.
