Ureterosciatic hernia (USH) is a rare benign disease. We report a case of USH treated with laparoscopic intraperitonization of the ureter. A 70-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with right abdominal pain lasting for 2 months. CT showed right hydronephrosis and invagination of the right ureter into the right sciatic foramen. She underwent retrograde ureterography, which revealed abnormal tortuosity of the right lower ureter, and was found to have USH. We performed laparoscopic intraperitonization of the ureter and she presented good postoperative course. Laparoscopic intraperitonization of the ureter can be a useful treatment for USH.
输尿管坐骨疝(USH)是一种罕见的良性疾病。我们报告一例采用输尿管腹腔镜腹腔内复位术治疗的USH病例。一名70岁女性因持续2个月的右腹痛入院。CT显示右肾积水以及右输尿管内陷至右坐骨大孔。她接受了逆行输尿管造影,结果显示右下输尿管异常迂曲,诊断为USH。我们实施了输尿管腹腔镜腹腔内复位术,术后她恢复良好。输尿管腹腔镜腹腔内复位术可作为USH的一种有效治疗方法。
