Ureteral Triplication: A Rare Congenital Anomaly

Abstract

Ureteral triplication remains a very rare congenital malformation of the urinary tract with a wide spectrum of presentation. The sporadic nature of this condition and its association with other anomalies makes evidence-based management difficult.
