Endometriose mit Ureterbeteiligung
Endometriosis is a benign proliferation of ectopic endometrium resembling uterine lining, responsive to estrogen and progesterone but lacking independent growth potential.

This case report details the clinical courses of two women with histologically confirmed endometriosis involving the ureters and resulting in hydronephrosis. The first patient, diagnosed during hypertension workup, underwent laparoscopic confirmation followed by percutaneous nephrostomy and surgical ureteral reimplantation. The second patient presented with chronic pelvic pain and infertility, requiring open laparotomy for adhesion lysis and subsequent ureteral reconstruction using a Psoas-Hitch technique. The authors note that urinary tract endometriosis is rare, often asymptomatic, and typically diagnosed late, necessitating individualized treatment plans based on age and fertility desires. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — specifically deep infiltrating endometriosis affecting the ureter and causing renal obstruction.
