Radiology Case Reports

Spontaneous rupture of the fornix due to ureteral lithiasis of 3 mm caused the clinic to report the case of a 37-year-old patient who presented to the emergency department with hyperalgesia renal colic. Intense right lumbar tenderness was found on physical examination, renal function was preserved. CT scan revealed significant ureteral hydronephrosis by urinary meatus calculus and a perirenal effusion and extravasation of the PDC at a late time. The emergency therapeutic management consisted of a bypass with a double J stent

Point-of-care ultrasound identifies Urinoma complicating simple renal colic. Three cases of unanticipated perinephric fluid collections identified initially on POC ultrasound in cases of suspected simple renal colic were presented. Concomitant hydronephrosis was also seen in each of these cases. Although the ideal management of these cases is not completely defined from the current literature, we benefit from knowing how to identify these on POC ultrasound, understanding the underlying pathophysiology, and appreciating the possibility of complications that may arise

Spontaneous Ureteral Rupture Diagnosis and Treatment case of a 69-year-old woman who presented at the emergency department of our institution with severe abdominal pain. a complete laboratory evaluation was performed and abdominal contrast-enhanced CT evaluation showed contrast agent extravasation outside the excretory system without any evidence of renal calculi at basal acquisition. a double-J stent placement which was followed by complete healing of the ureter and its removal was performed 8 weeks later
