摘要
Background: The retrocaval ureter represents a rare congenital anomaly that occurs 0.1% of the population and causes progressive ureterohydronephrosis, most of which asymptomatic. Case Report: In this case report, the retrocaval ureter detected in an adult male complaining of right-sided colicky flank pain is discussed. Conclusion: This condition, whose main cause is an anomaly in the development of vena cava, is easily diagnosed with imaging methods, and its symptoms can be completely corrected with surgical treatment.
