Abstract:
Nephrogenic adenoma is a rare, benign lesion that can be encountered anywhere along the urinary tract. It is associated with genitourinary trauma, chronic inflammation, genitourinary surgery, renal transplant, urolithiasis, and radiation. In children, these lesions are almost exclusively found in the bladder. However, we report an unusual case of a 15-year-old boy with no prior urologic history who presented with an obstructing right ureteral nephrogenic adenoma that required an ileal ureter interposition and right ureterectomy.
