Percutaneous pielography revealed narowing of the distal ureter, without endoureteral mass. The plain abdomen film incidentally showed a 3-cm calcified ring on the left renal shadow, who resulted external to the collecting system at pielography. A 3-dimensional-CT scan with angiographic reconstruction revealed a 3-cm calcified renal artery aneurysm. The vascular surgeon suggested a watchful waiting. The patient underwent ureteral reimplantation with ureteral stenting, allowing a complete recovery of iatrogenic stenosis two months postoperatively.展开更多
