Summary Two cases of unilateral and 2 of bilateral ureteral duplication with ectopy are presented. Five of 6 ectopic renal segments were visualised directly without instrumentation by means of high‐dose urograms with delayed films. This technique is recommended in the investigation of possible ureteral ectopy. We are grateful to Mr Guy Baines of Birmingham for referring Case 2 and also to Mr J. Gordon Smart of Leicester for the loan of radiographs in Case 4.
