A ureteral pathology arising from inflammatory aneurysm of the abdominal aorta is described.
METHODS/RESULTS: A case of inflammatory abdominal aortic aneurysm causing entrapment of both ureters, destruction of a renal unit and ureterohydronephrosis of the contralateral kidney is described.
Treatment of inflammatory aneurysm of the abdominal aorta is by surgical repair with a prosthesis. Endourological urinary drainage is warranted prior to surgical repair, but ureterolysis to preserve renal function is unnecessary.
