    Author: Leuthardt R, Bernhardt E, Gasser T, Kummer M.
    Journal: Eur J Pediatr Surg; 1994 Aug; 4(4):205-6. PubMed ID: 7981166.
    Abstract:
    The spontaneous rupture of the ureter is a rare condition. A case of a girl is reported with a spontaneous perforation caused by ureteral and renal calculi. The concomitant urinoma was drained and the ureter splinted with a double-J catheter. The calculi were destroyed by extracorporal piezoelectric lithotripsy without anesthesia.
