Ureteral diverticulosis

Singapore Med J. 2010 Sep;51(9):e161-2.

Abstract

Ureteric pseudo-diverticulosis is an uncommon urological finding, with fewer than 150 cases reported in the literature. These are usually seen as incidental findings on retrograde pyelography. We report a case of ureteric pseudo-diverticulosis that was incidentally detected on performing ureteroscopy for an upper ureteric stone.
