This case report describes an unusual instance of extrinsic ureteral endometriosis occurring alongside a complete ureteral duplication.

One-sentence paraphrase of the abstract; not a substitute for reading it. No clinical advice. How this works

Abstract

Endometriosis represents extrauterine nonneoplastic endometrial tissue. Involvement of the genitourinary tract has been reported at an incidence of about 1.2% and ureteral endometriosis is a rare entity. There are two major pathological types of ureteral endometriosis extrinsic and intrinsic. Here, we describe a case report about an ureteral endometriosis extrinsic with double collecting system and complete ureteral duplication.
