RESUMEN
Introducción:
El ureterocele corresponde a una dilatación sacular del uréter distal, la cual puede ser congénita o ectópica. Ocurren más frecuentemente en mujeres que hombres, presentándose de manera bilateral en el 10 por ciento de los casos. Su importancia radica en que son factores de riesgo tanto para infección como para la formación de cálculos. No existe consenso en el tratamiento de cálculos asociados a ureterocele, si bien el tratamiento endoscópico pareciera ser el de elección.(AU)ABSTRACT
Introduction:
The ureterocele corresponds to a saccular dilation of the distal ureter, which may be congenital or ectopic. They occur more frequently in women than men, presenting bilaterally in 10 pertcent of cases. Their importance lies in the fact that they are risk factors for both infection and stone formation. There is no consensus in the treatment of stones associated with ureterocele, although endoscopic treatment seems to be the one of choice Clinical Case A 69-year-old patient was referred for a long-term illness characterized by repeated episodes of UTI, associated with 2 hematuria events. An imaging study was performed (UROTAC), and a large left ureterocele was documented with 3 cm stones in its interior
