Area of Science:

  • Vascular Surgery
  • Urology
  • Gastroenterology

Background:

  • Inflammatory abdominal aortic aneurysms (iAAAs) are uncommon but can lead to ureteral obstruction.
  • Perianeurysmal fibrosis is a key feature causing ureteric involvement.

Observation:

  • A case of iAAA with ureteral involvement due to fibrosis is presented.
  • Literature review on the diagnosis and management of this rare condition was conducted.

Findings:

  • Computed tomography and retrograde pyelography are crucial for diagnosis.
  • A multi-step treatment approach including ureteral stenting, aneurysm repair, and ureterolysis is recommended.

Implications:

  • This approach offers a potential solution for managing ureteral complications of iAAAs.
