“Accidental” Diagnosis of a Silent Giant Hydronephrosis
Journal Title: JOURNAL OF UROLOGICAL SURGERY - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Giant hydronephrosis is defined as the presence of more than 1000 mL of fluid in the collecting system. While usually affecting children, uncommonly, adults may be affected, and it can be mistakenly diagnosed as a tumor. We present a case of silent giant hydronephrosis in an adult, misdiagnosed initially as a tumor, and subsequently confirmed as giant hydronephrosis postoperatively.
