A rare case of single ectopic ureter opening into a blind vagina with renal dysplasia and associated uterovaginal duplication is reported. The findings are interesting from the clinical diagnostic viewpoint and also contribute to our knowledge of the embryology of the female genitourinary system, especially concerning the origin of the vagina.
