A case of osseous metaplasia of the ureter presenting as a small upper-ureteral calculus is reported. This rare phenomenon may represent an unusual nucleus for stone formation in the urinary tract. The etiology of this condition is uncertain; we speculate that trauma to the ureter may stimulate osseous metaplasia.
报告了一例输尿管骨化生表现为输尿管上段小结石的病例。这种罕见现象可能是尿路结石形成的一个不寻常核心。这种情况的病因尚不确定;我们推测输尿管创伤可能刺激骨化生。
