DESCRIPTION A 42-year-old man presented to the Emergency Department with a sudden onset of right renal colic. Physical examination showed knocking tenderness on the rightsided costovertebral angle. Laboratory evaluation was unremarkable except haematuria on urinalysis. Abdominal radiography of the kidneys, ureters, and bladder (KUB) was negative. Intravenous urography, using 50 ml of 76% amidot...

The results of ultrasound examination and intravenous urography after a urinary infection were compared in 100 children. Thirty seven had an abnormality on urography, but in 12 this was not seen on ultrasound. One of these had renal scarring, the remainder only minor abnormalities.

Due to anatomic proximity of urogenital organs, urinary tract injury may lead to various complications including ureterovaginal fistula (UVF). We carried out a study to evaluate the etiopathogenesis, diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of ureterovaginal fistula along with outcome. The retrospective study was conducted at a tertiary care centre of eastern India, from January 2012 to January 2017....

BACKGROUND Thrombocytopenia and absent radius syndrome (TAR) is a rare genetic disorder. It is an autosomal recessive disorder characterised by radial aplasia and thrombocytopenia that may have additional anomalies. We report a case of TAR syndrome with crossed fused renal ectopia. This anomaly has not been previously reported in association with TAR syndrome. CASE PRESENTATION A 24 years old...

AIM To evaluate the role of repeated urological evaluation after negative initial diagnostic work-up of asymptomatic microhematuria (AMH) in low-risk patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Criteria for patient inclusion were a complete negative initial diagnostic assessment including ultrasound (US), cystoscopy, upper urinary tract (UUT) imaging using intravenous urography (IVU) or multiphasic comput...

Ureteral triplication is a rare congenital anomaly of the urinary tract. We report a case of ureteral triplication with contralateral partial kidney duplication in a patient with right loin pain. The development and types of ureteral triplication and the features of type 2 ureteral triplication on intravenous urography and magnetic resonance urography are described.

Fifty-one children with a bacteriologically proven urinary tract infection had both an intravenous urogram (IVU) and a micturating cystogram. The IVU was normal in 35. Only 6 of these children showed reflux in the cystogram, affecting 7 of the 70 ureters at risk. Since reflux on its own does not cause renal damage, which occurs only with super-added infection, detection of reflux is not importa...

Primary small cell carcinoma of the ureter is an extremely rare disease, only several cases have been reported worldwide so far. We report a 70-year-old woman who was examined with intravenous urography and abdominal computed tomography and was diagnosed as small cell carcinoma confirmed by pathology. We describe and discuss the urography and computed tomography findings of this case.

Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) in horseshoe kidneys with calculi. Materials and Methods: Between 1995 and 2005, we performed PCNL in 9 patients with horseshoe kidney. In 3 of them, there was a single calculus and the rest had multiple calculi in the pelvis and at least 1 in the calyxes. Ultrasonography, plain abdominal radiography, and in...

Inf lammatory pseudotumor of the urinary bladder is a rare entity that mimics a malignant bladder tumor both clinically and radiographically. We report a 66-year-old man, presented with gross haematuria. Intravenous urography (IVU), computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) al l demonstrated a pedunculated polypoid mass originated from the dome of the bladder and invaded th...
