Zusammenfassung
Ektop mündende Harnleiter aus dysplastischen, funktionseingeschränkten Nieren stellen ein diagnostisches Dilemma dar. Sonographie, Endoskopie oder konventionelle Röntgenuntersuchungen können häufig die Verdachtsdiagnose nicht sichern.
Am Beispiel eines 6-jährigen Mädchens wird die diagnostische Aussagekraft einer wassergewichteten MR-Urographie dargestellt. Erst diese Untersuchung ermöglichte aufgrund der exakten Darstellung des ektopen Harnleiterverlaufs die zielgerichtete chirurgische Korrektur.
Abstract
Ectopic ureters associated with dysplastic kidneys remain a diagnostic dilemma. Ultrasound, endoscopy as well as intravenous urography do not always show correct urinary tract morphology and function.
We report the case of a 6-year-old girl with continuous urine dribbling to demonstrate the diagnostic value of MR urography.
