Hypoplastic dysplastic kidney with a vaginal ectopic ureter identified by technetium-99m-DMSA scintigraphy

The Journal of Nuclear Medicine | January 1, 1998| | Copyright

Ectopic insertion of a ureter draining a hypoplastic dysplastic kidney is a significant cause of urinary incontinence in girls. In this case, such a kidney was detected with 99Sc-DMSA scintigraphy but not by intravenous pyelography. Scintigraphy facilitated further delineation of the anatomy with CT prior to nephrectomy. Based on this case and a literature review, we suggest that 99mTc-DMSA scintigraphy be performed early when evaluating girls with urinary incontinence.

Key Words: technetium-99m-dimercaptosuccinic acid; kidney; urinary incontinence; ectopic ureter J Nucl Med 1998; 39:113-115
