title: Staged treatment of hypoplastic bladder: a case with single ectopic ureter in a solitary kidney.
abstract: We report on a successful treatment of hypoplastic bladder in a 5-month-old girl with single ectopic ureter in a solitary kidney. Side-to-side anastomosis was performed first between the urethral ectopic ureter and side wall of the bladder. Nine months later when the bladder capacity increased to 70 ml, ureterocystoneostomy was done through psoas hitch procedure. She retains urine of about 270 ml and evacuate completely at 14 years of age.
