Purpose : A pediatric case of ectopic vas deferens opening into the ipsilateral ureter is reported. Methods/Results : Ectopic opening of the vas deferens was detected incidentally at ureterocystoneostomy being performed for vesicoureteral reflux to the solitary kidney of a 7‐month‐old boy with anorectal anomaly. Conclusions : The preservation of the patency of the seminal tract is recommended.
