Ureteral orifice obstruction by tumour as a cause of renal colic with renal pelvis rupture
Renal colic is one of the most common causes of urgent urological evaluation. The differential diagnosis is broad, with the urological causes of renal colic including extramural or intramural ureteral obstruction, most often by a calculus. The present case report describes one of the rarer cases of ureteral obstruction by a bladder tumour involving the ureteral orifice, which causes congestion in the hollow system, resulting in a rupture of the renal pelvis.
Keywords: renal colic, differential diagnosis, bladder cancer.
