  • Title: [Inflammatory aorto-iliac aneurysm. A cause of extrinsic ureteral obstruction].
    Author: García Díez F, Guerreiro González R, González del Valle C, Vaquero Morillo F.
    Journal: Arch Esp Urol; 1995 Sep; 48(7):750-3. PubMed ID: 7487185.
    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: A ureteral pathology arising from inflammatory aneurysm of the abdominal aorta is described. METHODS/RESULTS: A case of inflammatory abdominal aortic aneurysm causing entrapment of both ureters, destruction of a renal unit and ureterohydronephrosis of the contralateral kidney is described. CONCLUSIONS: Treatment of inflammatory aneurysm of the abdominal aorta is by surgical repair with a prosthesis. Endourological urinary drainage is warranted prior to surgical repair, but ureterolysis to preserve renal function is unnecessary.
