    Summary

    Neoplasia can cause ureteral displacement and ectasia in patients. This study found ureteral deviation, often in the lower third, linked to retroperitoneal tumors and adenopathies.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Oncology
    • Radiology

    Background:

    • Neoplasia can affect the retroperitoneum and surrounding structures.
    • Ureteral displacement and ectasia are potential complications of retroperitoneal pathologies.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the relationship between neoplasia and ureteral abnormalities.
    • To identify patterns of ureteral displacement and ectasia in patients with known neoplasms.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 15 patients with known neoplasms.
    • Evaluation of imaging studies for ureteral displacement and ectasia.
    • Comparison with control groups.

    Main Results:

    • Ureteral displacement, predominantly unilateral and in the lower third, was observed in patients with neoplasia.
    • Ectasia of the excretory system occurred in two patients with neoplasms.
    • Adenopathies were the most frequent cause of ureteral deviation.

    Conclusions:

    • Neoplasia, particularly adenopathies, is associated with ureteral displacement and ectasia.
    • These findings highlight the importance of considering ureteral abnormalities in patients with retroperitoneal neoplasms.
