Ureteral anomalies are difficult to diagnose on routine investigations in the background of a megaureter. Ureteric valves are a rare cause of congenital obstructive uropathy. Mid ureteric valves are rarer than proximal or distal ureteric valves, and most patients are misdiagnosed preoperatively. Therefore, intraoperative identification is critical. We present a case of mid ureteric valve which presented as unilateral hydroureteronephrosis.
