[Ureteral ectopy. The residual stump syndrome].

Anatomy and symptoms of ureteral ectopy in childhood can greatly vary. In most cases the site of ectopies in the urethral tract, so that a complete excision of the distal ureter is difficult and may cause damage to the sphincteric structures. When lower ureterectomy is performed below iliac vessels, symptoms secondary to residual ectopic ureter are rare. In our experience, residual ureteral stumps were symptomatic in two cases, with continence and micturation disturbances, which were codified as "residual ureteral stump syndrome". Clinical features and treatment are herein reported.

[Valves of the anterior urethra without diverticulum. Description of 3 cases].

Anterior urethral valves are rare entities, especially in case they are not associated to urethral diverticulum. Because of their obstructive effects on the urinary tract, they must be searched in case of clinical evidence of lower obstructive uropathy. Three cases of anterior urethral valves without urethral diverticulum are herein reported. Differential diagnosis with urethral diverticula, endoscopic features and treatment are discussed and emphasized.
