Uncrossed complete ureteral duplication with dysplastic lower moiety: a violation of the Weigert-Meyer law.

We report a rare case of complete uncrossed ureteral duplication with dysplastic lower moiety. This case not only violates the Weigert-Meyer law but also fails to explain Mackie and Stephen's theory of renal dysplasia in a complete duplication system.

Congenital diaphragmatic hernia with gastric volvulus.

Gastric volvulus is a surgical emergency presenting in various forms. Association with diaphragmatic defect is well known. Here we describe three cases of gastric volvulus associated with diaphragmatic defect having varied presentations and their management. A rare case of gastric volvulus with complete gangrene of the stomach is also reported. Three types of gastric volvulus have been described depending on the rotation axis: organoaxial, mesentericoaxial and combination of both types. Operative treatment includes reduction, correction of underlying cause and gastropexy.
