ossess ureteral duplicity (partialor complete—as I found in 100 consecutive autopsies) andtwenty-five per eent. of said subjects are afflicted withdisease of one of the duplicate ureters, it behooves thephysician to remember that at least one subject in 100may possess ureteral duplicity with one of the duplicateureters ill. Disease in Duplicate Ureters -5 Unilateral Urbtbral Duplicity (Dextra). Fig. 1.—Dorsal view.—The distal ureter markedly dila-ted, (hydroureter). The ureter is not absolutely duplicate—an ineh of the distal ureteral ends coalesce and dilateprevious to entrance into the bladder—ending in a singlevesicle ureteral orifice. The cause of death was interstitialnephritis (dextra ), parenchymatous nephritis of left kidney.The distal coalesced extremity of the right ureter is cysti-cally dilated. Ureteral catheterization might decide thiscondition with X-ray of ureters in situ. (Drawn from speci-men in Prague Pathologic Institute and presented to meby Prof. Krctz).

11*. i. 26 The American Practitioner and News. Unilateral Ureteral Duplicity—(Sinistra).Fig. 2.—Ventral view.—The proximal ureter of the leftside is dilated, that is, one of the left duplicate ureters isa hydro-ureter. The distal termination of the distal ureteron the left side presents malposition—ends in internal ori-fice of urethra. No ureteral crossing exists. This is anunusual anomaly, and is perhaps due to distortion. Theproximal ureter, in ureteral duplicity, ends distalwards andmedialwards to that of the distal ureter, as a rule.
