Abstract |
Spontaneous ureteral rupture is rare, and refers to leakage in the absence of prior ureteral manipulation, external trauma,
previous surgery, or any destructive kidney disease. It presents a major diagnostic challenge due to the diversity at
presentation. Here, we present a rare case of spontaneous ureteral rupture in a 62-year-old man with a history of fungal
pyonephrosis (Candida) on maintenance hemodialysis, causing a large infected urinoma and abscess and a review the
literature. (Korean J Med 76:229-233, 2009) |
