Abstract

Non-refluxing and non-obstructive megaureter is usually diagnosed in neonates. It is very rare in adults. Herein we presented a 45 year-old man with macroscopic hematuria. He was diagnosed primary non-refluxing non-obstructive megaureter after clinical evaluations. In addition we reviewed current literature in the light of this very rare condition.

Özet

Reflüksif ve obstrüktif olmayan megaürter genellikle yeni doğanlarda teşhis edilir. Yetişkinlerde çok nadirdir. Bu olgu sunumunda makroskopik hematüri ile başvuran 45 yaşındaki bir erkek hasta sunuldu. Klinik değerlendirmelerden sonra primer reflüksif ve obstrüktif olmayan megaüreter teşhisi kondu. Buna ek olarak, bu çok ender vaka eşliğinde mevcut literatürü gözden geçirdik.
