BSTRACT
Infantile renal tuberculosis (TB) associated with an ectopic ureter is extremely rare. We report an 11-month-old infant with a left nonfunctioning kidney associated with gross hydroureteronephrosis and an ectopic ureter who was diagnosed with renal TB unexpectedly on histopathology. This case highlights the importance of histopathological evaluation, particularly in endemic areas.
