Background: The duplex collecting system is one of the congenital anomalies of kidney and urinary tract. It occurs in 0.2-2% of the general population. It can remain asymptomatic or become symptomatic. Affected children may present with urinary tract infections. Treatment options include pharmacological and surgical approaches. Case: We reported a 3-year-old male child, who was referred to Sanglah Hospital with recurrent fever. From the physical examination, we found positive costovertebral angle tenderness. Urinalysis showed high leukocyte sediments (1655/field of view), positive urine culture (Enterococcus gallinarum), and decreased glomerular filtration rate (68.75 ml/minute/1.73 m2). Ultrasonography of the right kidney showed two pelvicalyceal systems with severe hydronephrosis of upper moiety. The intravenous pyelography showed the drooping lily sign in the right kidney. We diagnosed the patient with a complicated urinary tract infection caused by Enterococcus gallinarum, duplex collecting system of right kidney, chronic kidney disease stage II. Antibiotics were administered due to complicated UTI. Open heminephrectomy was done. The patient was discharged in stable condition. Conclusion: The duplex collecting system may cause recurrent urinary tract infection. It can be a risk factor for renal scarring and cause chronic kidney disease. Comprehensive diagnostic workup and multidisciplinary management are needed to promote a good clinical outcome.
