Renal scintigraphy, using 99mTc-ethelenodicysteine (99mTc-EC), showed extremely diminished function of the right kidney (0% vs. 100% left kidney), voiding cystourethrography suggested reflux into ectopic right ureteral orifice (Fig.1).
Contrast examination during cystoscopy: reflux to the ectopic ureter draining into the seminal vesicle (arrow).

To confirm the diagnosis of the ectopic ureter, cystourethroscopy with rigid cystoscope 6F was performed, which revealed a connection between right ureter and seminal vesicles (Fig.2).
