Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Vascular Surgery
  • Embryology

Background:

  • The ureter's retrocaval course is an evolutionary vascular system anomaly.
  • This condition arises from developmental errors in fetal venous development.
  • Clinical manifestations include lumbar pain, hematuria, pyelonephritis, nephrolithiasis, and hypertension.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the clinical presentation and management of patients with ureteral malposition.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of surgical correction for ureteral anomalies.

Main Methods:

  • Diagnostic imaging modalities such as ultrasonography, tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging were employed.
  • Surgical intervention focused on restoring the ureter's normal anatomical position.
  • Laparoscopic minimally invasive techniques were increasingly utilized.

Main Results:

  • Three patients with ureteral malposition underwent surgical correction.
  • All patients experienced improvement in their clinical condition post-operation.

Conclusions:

  • Surgical correction is the optimal treatment for ureteral malposition.
  • Minimally invasive laparoscopic approaches offer effective treatment options.
  • Restoring normal ureter anatomy leads to significant clinical improvement.
