Surgical complications remain a significant clinical problem following renal transplantation. Ureteral obstruction following transplantation is not uncommon. Persistent obstruction of the ureterovesical anastomosis is the most common urologic complication. Obstruction occurring beyond the first post operative month remains frequent (2-7.5%) and mostly related to ureteral stenosis. We report here a case of Ureteral stenosis due to an unusual cause and review the literature. |
