Prolapsed Ureterocele Causing Acute Urinary Retention in Adult Female with Bilateral Ureteroceles – A Rare Entity

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 3

Abstract

A case report of a 39 year old female who presented with acute urinary retention and a mass protruding out of external urethral meatus. On examination there was a palpable urinary bladder with a cystic mass at external urethral meatus. Urinary retention was relieved by catheterisation after manual reduction of urethral mass in urinary bladder. Ultrasonography revealed right hydronephrosis with hydroureter, no evidence of calculi and normal left kidney. CT-IVU showed bilateral ureterocele, largest on the right side. Patient underwent cystoscopy with right ureterocele incision. Prolapsed ureterocele, though rare, physician should consider it as a differential diagnosis of vulval mass with urinary retention.
