[A case report of ureteropelvic junction obstruction and multiple renal stones associated with nutcracker syndrome].

A 20 year-old man presented to emergency room with severe left-sided flank pain. Urinalysis showed hematuria and he was referred to the urology department. KUB, DIP and retrograde pyelography (RP) revealed multiple renal stones, left hydronephrosis (grade 2) and ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). Abdominal CT revealed shortened nutcracker distance and renal angiography showed left renal vein hypertension. From these findings, diagnosis of nutcracker syndrome was made. Transposition of the left renal vein, dismembered pyeloplasty and left pyelolithotomy were performed simultaneously. 2 months after the procedure, his symptom and hematuria disappeared. 3 months after the procedure, DIP revealed improvement of hydronephrosis (grade 1) and CT showed elongation of nutcracker distance. In 12 months follow-up, there was no recurrence of symptom and hydonephrosis. To the best our knowledge, there has been no report of UPJO associated with nutcracker syndrome and the simultaneous treatment for the both diseases.
