title: Bilateral pelvicalyceal duplication with contralateral drainage.
abstract: We report on a peculiar congenital duplication anomaly of the kidney and collecting system. A bifid left renal pelvis receives the ureter draining the lower moiety of a fully duplicated right system. To our knowledge, such an anomaly has not been previously described.
