Tandem Ureteral Stents for Malignant Ureteral Obstruction

Journal of Endourology, 2020
Objectives: Malignant ureteral obstruction (MUO) is a devastating complication of cancer, and it is commonly treated by drainage via percutaneous nephrostomy (PCN). The objective of this study was to determine the efficacy, safety, and functional outcome of tandem ureteral stents (TUS) in the management of MUO.

Ureteritis Cystica: A Rare Cause of Ureteral Obstruction

Journal of Endourology, 2010
Ureteritis cystica is a rare, but recognized cause of ureteral obstruction. To our knowledge, we present the first case where obstruction secondary to the cystic component is confirmed with a functional study. Additionally, we present high-quality radiologic and endoscopic images of two cases of ureteritis cystica.

Pelvic endometriosis and ureteral obstruction

American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, 1975
Pelvic endometriosis may completely obstruct the ureters and destroy the kidneys with little or no gynecologic symptoms. Five cases are discussed, all causing ureteral obstruction. Two patients suffered the complete loss of a kidney and in each case the remaining kidney was in jeopardy because of partial obstruction due to endometriosis.
