Bleeding ureter: endometriosis mascarading as a ureteral malignancy - a case report.

S M L Prakash Babu1, Puvvada Sandeep2, Amey Pathade2, H K Nagaraj3.   

Abstract

Ureteral endometriosis is a serious localization of disease burden that can lead to urinary tract obstruction, with subsequent hydroureter, hydronephrosis, and potential kidney loss. As the diagnosis is elusive, a heavy clinical suspicion is necessary. Surgical technique to treatment varies, but the goal is to salvage renal function and decrease disease burden. Here, we are presenting a rare case of bleeding ureter in a young lady who had endometriosis of the ureter.
