Abstract EN
A seventy-one-year-old woman was hospitalized at our institution for a right-sided “renal colic” associated with an infectious background.
Alithiasic ureterohydronephrosis was diagnosed by imaging.
A urinary diversion was thus performed using a double J endoureteral stent.
The etiologic assessment of the hydronephrosis showed the presence of a periureteral mass that caused extrinsic ureteral compression.
After surgical excision of the ureteral lesion, the Wegener's granulomatosis diagnosis was established.
This report is the clinical description of a case of “atypical” Wegener's granulomatosis revealed by the onset of a ureteral disease mimicking a neoplastic process.
