Abstract

An atrophic right kidney located in the pelvic cavity associated with an ectopic ureter was completely removed from a 4-year-old girl by laparoscopic surgery. There were no serious complications during the operation or the postoperative period. The light shining from the tip of a fine fiberscope inserted into the ureter was used to delineate this structure during laparoscopic surgery.
