hydronephrosis/nausea

A case of giant hydronephrosis due to ureteropelvic junction obstruction in an 18-year-old boy is reported. The patient had been told to undergo an operation for the left hydronephrosis at 2 years of age. However, he stayed away from hospital until he presented at our clinic with nausea caused by a

A 56-year-old woman presented with right-sided flank pain, dizziness, and nausea. Ultrasonography revealed hydronephrosis of the right kidney. CT showed a nodular mass at the ureteropelvic junction. Subsequent CT angiography revealed the nodular mass as a distal aneurysm of the right renal artery

BACKGROUND Giant hydronephrosis is a relatively rare condition caused by obstruction of the renal collecting system that can present with a great number of different types of abdominal signs and symptoms. METHODS A 40-year-old man without past medical history presented to the Emergency Department

OBJECTIVE We sought to assess the clinical and imaging findings in intermittent hydronephrosis secondary to ureteropelvic junction obstruction, with particular emphasis on the characteristic ultrasonographic findings. METHODS This prospective, longitudinal, observational study included all children

Lupus cystitis is a rare complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). It is characterized by an increase in bladder wall thickness and may be associated with hydroureteronephrosis. Reports, mostly from East Asian countries, indicate that lupus cystitis usually presents with gastrointestinal

OBJECTIVE Hydronephrosis is a frequently observed but understudied complication in patients with cervical cancer. To better characterize hydronephrosis in cervical cancer patients, the current study sought (1) to describe hydronephrosis-associated morbidity and (2) to analyze the prognostic effect

Obstruction of a ureter secondary to tumor, fibrosis, or inflammation has been well documented in published reports. A review of English studies revealed no reported cases of hydronephrosis of a native kidney resulting from hyperstimulation of an ovary. We report a case of hydronephrosis in a woman

Gastric cancer is the fifth most common cancer in the world and the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths. Signet-ring cell type is the most malicious subtype. We report a case of advanced stage gastric adenocarcinoma case post-radical gastrectomy who presented with nausea, vomiting, and

Urinary tract obstruction leading to acute kidney injury is usually associated with bilateral hydroureters and hydronephrosis, often accompanied by oliguria. We present an atypical case of obstructive uropathy without these features that presented with severe acute kidney injury. A 64-year-old male

Ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO) causes a reduction in the urine flow from the renal pelvis into the ureter. Untreated UPJO may cause hydronephrosis, chronic infection or urolithiasis and will often result in progressive deterioration of renal function. Most cases of UPJO are congenital;

Breast cancer is the leading malignancy and the second most common cause of mortality in women. Although there have been advances in identifying biomarkers as potential targets for therapy, triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) continues to have a poorer prognosis than the other receptor subtypes.

The patient was a 74-year-old woman. As the history of the present illness, Raynaud's phenomenon appeared in 1998, antinuclear antibody positivity was detected in 2002, and she visited our department for the first time. Leukopenia and positivity for anti-DNA and anti-RNP antibodies were present, but
