Abstract
Four cases of herniation of the ureter are presented. A discussion of the various types of ureteral hernia is based on the roentgenographic features of each type as well as the anatomical considerations responsible for these radiographic signs. The use of erect and oblique projections in patients with hernias undergoing urography is urged. The sign of the curlicue ureter is felt to be pathognomonic for ureteral hernia.Entities:
