Unusual presentation of bilateral ureteroceles with ureterolithiasis in a patient after robotic prostatectomy

Urology. 2012 May;79(5):e63-4. doi: 10.1016/j.urology.2012.02.013.

Abstract

We present a unique case of incidentally discovered symptomatic, stone-laden ureteroceles after robotic prostatectomy at a high-volume institution. The 2-month postoperative timeline to presentation and laser unroofing management strategy for bilateral ureteroceles after robotic prostatectomy are described.
