  ABSTRACT: To assess the accuracy of ultrasound diagnosis of duplex kidneys in the fetus and to identify prognostic features of antenatal sonography associated with this diagnosis. Retrospective identification of cases with an antenatal diagnosis of duplex kidney was made from computerized databases. Results of postnatal radiological investigations were obtained from the unit where delivery took place. A total of 75% of cases seen in a multidisciplinary fetal renal clinic were correctly diagnosed as having a duplex kidney. Prognostic sonographic features are described. Detection of two separate poles or a ureterocele were strongly associated with a correct diagnosis. Accuracy was increased when two or more prognostic features were seen. Accurate sonographic diagnosis of duplex kidneys in the fetus is possible in a dedicated multidisciplinary setting. Antenatal counseling and planning of postnatal care for the infant can be made with a high degree of certainty.

  ABSTRACT: Duplex kidneys occur in 0.8% of the general population, many of whom are asymptomatic. Children with duplex kidneys may be prone to urinary tract infections because of vesico-ureteric reflux or obstruction. Surgical management is usually required once symptoms occur. Increasing numbers of duplex kidneys are now prenatally diagnosed by ultrasound, resulting in the development of early postnatal strategies to try and reduce morbidity.
