  • Title: [Retrotendinous ureter. An exceptional cause of obstruction in the upper urinary tract].
    Author: Guarise P, Cimaglia ML, Spata F, Cappellari F, Belloli G.
    Journal: Pediatr Med Chir; 1989; 11(1):85-8. PubMed ID: 2717491.
    Abstract:
    Retrotendineus ureter is an exceptional anomaly presenting, in our experience, without clinical signs of urinary infection and obstruction. The radiological diagnosis was retrocaval ureter. The Authors report a case of a 9 years old boy who was successfully treated by ureteral section, excision of the obstructed ureteral segment and uretero-ureteral anastomosis. It seems that the case is the first reported in the medical literature of this anomaly.
