Ureteral stones are the most frequent causes of a fornix rupture. With a low pressure system and antibiotic treatment, the outcome is excellent, and secondary complications can be effectively prevented. Parameters for conservative treatment are to be defined to reduce overtreatment of certain patients with a fornix rupture.

We confirm that ureteral stones are the most frequent causes of fornix rupture. With a low pressure system and antibiotic treatment, secondary complications can be effectively prevented.

We report on a 22-year old patient with an ectopic ureter ending in the vestibulum of the vagina without genital malformations. Generally, the diagnosis of this anomaly will have already been made in childhood, because of enuresis uretica and therapy-resistant vaginal discharge. The methods of diagnosis leading to this anomaly, which is rare at that age, and the therapeutic requirements are shown.
