Blind-ending branch of a bifid ureter: multidetector CT imaging findings

A bifid ureter with a blind-ending branch is a rare congenital anomaly. Although typically found incidentally, this anomaly can be symptomatic and radiologists should be aware of this important variant. To our knowledge, there has been no previous report of this anomaly as seen on multidetector CT urography. We present a patient with haematuria and review the clinical significance, radiological findings and embryological aetiology of this anomaly.
