Can be problem free: 1% of population have complete duplication of collecting sytem ; ureter. Many more have just a duplex collecting system without any problem. Problems with double collecting sydtem referred to me, after a UTI os an incidental finding are: bladder reflux, hydroneprosis from uretero-pelvic junction obstruction involving both kidney elements or just lower one, upper pole megaureter or ureterocele.
