Ureteral triplication--report of four cases.
Four cases of ureteral triplication in children are described. In one case ureteral triplication was detected incidentally and it was not accompanied by any other pathology of the urinary tract. In the three remaining cases there were pathologies of the urinary system (reflux, obstruction) that demanded surgical treatment. The literature concerning this rare anomaly is reviewed.
