Duplex Kidneys: A Correlation of Renal Dysplasia with Position of the Ureteral Orifice
Abstract
A study was made of 51 duplex kidneys, ureters and bladders to assess the types of abnormalities seen in duplex kidneys. The abnormalities affected ectopic and orthotopic segments equally. The occurrence of renal abnormality was closely correlated to the abnormal locations of the segment's ureteral orifice. When the orifice was displaced either cranially (orifice positions B, C and D) or caudally (orifices G and H) the orthotopic and ectopic segments, respectively, showed more severe hypoplasia and dysplasia. Faulty embryogenesis is proposed to explain these findings and the importance of endoscopic positioning of the ureteral orifice is emphasized in determining whether heminephrectomy will be necessary.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
