We report a male infant initially found to have distal ureteric dilatation on postnatal ultrasonography. Micturating cystourethrogram demonstrated a contrast-filled structure adjacent to the bladder, raising suspicion of distal ureteric dilatation or bladder diverticulum. Serial imaging confirmed persistence of the lesion. By 3\u00a0years of age, the patient developed recurrent urosepsis and voiding dysfunction. Further assessment demonstrated a large bladder diverticulum with ureteric insertion. The patient underwent cystoscopy and laparoscopic diverticulectomy with ureteric reimplantation. Intraoperative findings confirmed a large diverticulum with ureteric insertion into its mid-portion. Reconstruction was achieved without complication, with resolution of symptoms and improved bladder emptying at 3\u00a0months follow-up. This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of distal ureteric dilatation and demonstrates the role of minimally invasive surgery in managing complex lower urinary tract anomalies.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1093\/jscr\/rjag637","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,8]],"date-time":"2026-07-08T11:55:15Z","timestamp":1783511715000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Laparoscopic
