Retrocaval ureter is a rare disease associated with abnormal embryonic development. Here, we describe a patient who exhibited retrocaval ureter complicated by renal and ureteral calculi, which were treated by percutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with retroperitoneal laparoscopy. A 64-year-old man was admitted to our hospital because of intermittent back pain that had been present for more than 10 years. During hospitalization, he was diagnosed with retrocaval ureter, right renal calculi, and right ureteral calculi with right hydronephrosis; he underwent percutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with retroperitoneal laparoscopic surgery. After the operation, his condition was stable and he exhibited good recovery. Our findings in this case suggest that percutaneous nephrolithotomy combined with retroperitoneal laparoscopy is a suitable option for the treatment of retrocaval ureter with renal and ureteral calculi.
腔静脉后输尿管是一种与胚胎发育异常相关的罕见疾病。在此,我们描述一名患有腔静脉后输尿管并伴有肾和输尿管结石的患者,其通过经皮肾镜取石术联合后腹腔镜手术进行治疗。一名64岁男性因间歇性背痛10余年入院。住院期间,他被诊断为腔静脉后输尿管、右肾结石、右输尿管结石伴右肾积水;他接受了经皮肾镜取石术联合后腹腔镜手术。术后,他病情稳定,恢复良好。我们在此病例中的发现表明,经皮肾镜取石术联合后腹腔镜手术是治疗伴有肾和输尿管结石的腔静脉后输尿管的合适选择。
