Retrocaval ureter: about an observation with successful plastic correction
Uréter retrocava: a propósito de una observación con corrección plástica exitosa
Resumen:
A case of retrocava ureter was treated successfully by corrective plastic surgery. This is a rare disease, venous in origin, though its consequences are found in the urinary tract (hydronephrosis). Embriological and ethiopathogenic characteristics, clinical symptoms and radiological signs are discussed in this paper.Association of ureteral contrast with cavography provides certainty in diagnosis. Treatment usually consists it: preservative surgery (transposition of ureter) altroughin incipient cases abstention with periodic control is justified; when evolution is advanced nephrectomy is the only possible solution.
Se presenta un caso de uréter retrocava diagnosticado en forma completa y tratado exitosamente mediante operación plástica correctora. Los· autores reseñan las características embriológicas y etiopatogénicas de esta rara anomalía, cuya causa primitiva es venosa, aunque sus consecuencias aparecen en el aparato urinario (hidronefrosis).Los síntomas clínicos y los signos radiológicos son analizados; dentro de éstos, la asociación del contraste ureteral con la cavografía permite un diagnóstico decerteza. El tratamiento corriente es la cirugía conservadora \ transposición del uréter), aunque en casos incipientes está justificada la abstención con control periódico;cuando la afección está muy evolucionada sólo cabe la nefrectomía.
