Duplex Renal System
Duplex Renal System – Expert Diagnosis & Care
A Duplex Renal System is a condition where one or both kidneys have two drainage systems instead of one. This is a common congenital (by birth) condition and is often detected during routine ultrasound. In most cases, it does not cause major problems, but some children or adults may experience symptoms that require medical attention.
