Ureteral endometriosis accounts for about 5 % of urologic endometriosis, with a peak incidence in the age group of 30-35 years, usually with unilateral onset. Because of its insidious onset, often combined with asymptomatic loss of renal function, and the ineffectiveness of medications, surgery is the gold standard of treatment.Thus, here we report a case of ureteral endometriosis with severe hydronephrosis to raise awareness of this condition.
输尿管子宫内膜异位症约占泌尿系统子宫内膜异位症的5%,发病高峰年龄在30 - 35岁,通常为单侧发病。由于其起病隐匿,常伴有无症状的肾功能丧失,且药物治疗无效,手术是治疗的金标准。因此,我们在此报告一例伴有严重肾积水的输尿管子宫内膜异位症病例,以提高对该病的认识。
