Abstract
The presence of separate stones in completely duplicated ureter is a rare clinical entity. In this case report, a 53 years old female patient who admitted to hospital with left flank pain and who was found to have bilateral left complete duplicated ureter obstructed with concomitant stones was described. She was treated with rigid ureteroscopy. It should be kept in mind that diameters of duplicated ureters may be smaller than normal. Hence, both operation can be more challenging, and traumatization of ureters is more likely compared to standard procedure. Due to different anatomical structures of ureters in order to prevent serious injury during operation, procedure should be done with utmost care, devices with low caliber and high visual quality. In cases when ureteral passage does not fit calibration of ureteroscopy, definitive treatment should be postponed until passive dilatation should be obtained by ureteral catheters.
