[Malakoplakia involving kidney, both ureters and bladder: a case report and review of the literature]. / Malakoplakie rénale, urétérale bilatérale et vésicale : à propos d'un cas et revue de la littérature.

Malakoplakia is an unusual chronic inflammation characterized macroscopically by pseudotumoral lesions and histologically by the presence of "Michaelis-Gutman" bodies in macrophages. It affects principally the urinary tract and is probably secondary to an unusual macrophagic reaction to recurrent urinary tract infections. If the bladder is the most frequent site of occurrence, the ureters can very rarely be affected resulting in urinary tract obstruction. We presented here a unique presentation of renal, bilateral ureteral and bladder malakoplakia.
