RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: To report a new case of bilateral ureteral pseudodiverticulosis associated with a transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder. METHODS: 70 year-old male patient under ambulatory study for hematuria. RESULTS: The intravenous urography (IVU) shows images of addition in relation to bilateral ureteral pseudodiverticulosis. Urine cytology and cystoscopy showed the existence of a concomitant tumor. CONCLUSIONS: The diagnosis of ureteral pseudodiverticulosis is incidentally made on an IVU indicated for other reasons. Although it is a benign pathology, it is necessary to follow these patients because of its association with transitional cell carcinoma.
