Obstructed Bifid Uretereric System Causing Unilateral Hydronephrosis

Manoj Srivastava Amyn Bhamani

Bifid ureters are a common malformation of the urinary system. In clinical practice, hydronephrosis resulting from obstruction of such a system is rare. The authors present a case involving an 88-year-old man admitted to the hospital with symptoms of renal failure, where bifid ureters were found incidentally in a hydronephrotic kidney during an emergency nephrostomy. This had been missed on a previous CT scan, resulting in a unique therapeutic dilemma. [ Rev Urol. 2013;15(3):131-134 doi: 10.3909/riu0578] © 2013 MedReviews®, LLC

Ureteral Metastasis as the Presenting Manifestation of Pancreatic Carcinoma

Shilpi Gupta Qutub Ali Nand Kishore Arvind Onkar Singh

We recently cared for a patient with adenocarcinoma of the pancreas who presented with ureteral metastasis followed by hydroureteronephrosis long before the appearance of any symptoms related to the primary lesion. The entity is extremely rare; only seven similar cases are on record in the scientific literature. No recent review exists on this topic. This encouraged us to present our case along with the previous cases of adenocarcinoma of the pancreas with ureteral metastasis that have been reported.
