Isolated ureteral involvement in urogenital tuberculosis is rare. The diagnosis can be difficult to evoke. The radiological aspect often evokes tumor involvement, hence the importance of mentioning this pathology in endemic countries. The purpose of this study is to show that it will be necessary to think of ureteral tuberculosis in the presence of ureteral thickening living in an endemic country. We reported a case of ureteric tuberculosis in a 46-years old man mimicking a tumor.
孤立性输尿管受累于泌尿生殖系统结核较为罕见。其诊断往往难以得出。影像学表现常提示肿瘤受累,因此在结核病流行国家提及这种病理情况很重要。本研究的目的是表明,在结核病流行国家,出现输尿管增厚时,有必要考虑输尿管结核。我们报告了一例46岁男性输尿管结核病例,其表现类似肿瘤。
