Ureteritis cystica is a rare disease that must be considered in the differential diagnosis of ureteral and renal pelvic filling defects. The characteristic radiographic findings often regress spontaneously when the process instigating the inflammation is eradicated. However, in our patient radiological findings remained unchanged during a 17-year period in the absence of malignancy or infection. Although it sometimes coexists with cancer, we believe that ureteritis cystica is usually benign and indolent.
囊性输尿管炎是一种罕见疾病，在输尿管和肾盂充盈缺损的鉴别诊断中必须予以考虑。当引发炎症的过程被根除时，典型的影像学表现通常会自行消退。然而，在我们的患者中，在没有恶性肿瘤或感染的情况下，影像学表现17年来一直未变。虽然它有时与癌症共存，但我们认为囊性输尿管炎通常是良性且进展缓慢的。
