Abstract

A 58-year-old Japanese female was admitted to our hospital for treatment of ovarian cancer. She had no urinary tract symptoms at the time of presentation. Preoperative CT (Computed Tomography) was performed for surgical planning, and it revealed two left-sided ureters including a short ureter with a blind, cystic ending and a short ureter joined to the main ureter before entering into the bladder. On CT urography, these radiological findings were compatible with a blind-ending bifid ureter. Preoperatively, a double J stent was inserted into the normal left ureter, and then the blind-ending bifid ureter was resected before an ovarian cancer operation.
