Ureteral Diverticulosis

Thomas W. Schoborg¹,

Thomas J. Florence²

Abstract: Ureteral diverticulosis is a rare condition found mostly in men more than 50 years old and generally requires retrograde pyelography for diagnosis. Urinary obstruction and infection are often associated. No significant morbidity occurs but the analogy of hematuria from ureteral diverticulosis to bleeding from colonic diverticulosis is present.

Multiple ureteral diverticula

Only 30 cases of multiple ureteral diverticula have been reported previously. We present a new case of this benign condition and review concepts concerning its etiology. Usually discovered on retrograde pyelography, multiple ureteral diverticula are only inconsistently associated with a history of obstruction or infection. When present, however, these factors may play a role in precipitating mucosal herniation through preexisting weak areas in the ureteral wall.
