Mid-ureteric obstruction due to diaphragmatic valve: Case report with review of literature
نویسندگان
چکیده
Congenital ureteric obstruction caused by a ureteric valve is an extremely rare entity. Our patient, a 6-year-old male, had undergone evaluation for recurrent pain in the left lower part of abdomen and was diagnosed as a case of left hydrouretronehrosis on ultrasound abdomen. Intravenous urography revealed left hydronephrosis and hydroureter with a cut-off in mid –ureteric region. Micturating cysto-urethrogram (MCUG) and cystoscopy were normal. Laparotomy with excision of valve with end to end uretro-uretrostomy was performed. Histopathology revealed Type II ureteric valve. A high index of suspicion is required to make a correct preoperative diagnosis.
