Ureteral rupture and bone scintigraphy.

M Moinuddin, J F Rockett

    The Journal of Urology
    |September 1, 1978

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Bone scans can reveal upper ureteral rupture, a non-osseous finding. Physicians should examine bone scans for abnormalities beyond bone, especially after retrograde pyelography.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Urology
    • Nuclear Medicine

    Background:

    • Bone scintigraphy is a common imaging modality.
    • Retrograde pyelography is an invasive diagnostic procedure.

    Observation:

    • A 30-year-old patient presented with an incidental finding on a bone scan.
    • The abnormality was identified following retrograde pyelography.

    Findings:

    • Scintigraphic findings indicated an upper ureteral rupture.
    • This represented a non-osseous abnormality detected on bone scan.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the potential for detecting unexpected urinary tract pathology on bone scans.
    • Alerts clinicians to consider ureteral injury in the differential diagnosis of bone scan abnormalities.
  • Emphasizes the importance of careful interpretation of all findings on scintigraphy.
