[Ureteral diverticulosis (author's transl)].
We report here two new cases of ureteral diverticulosis. This condition is found usually in the man of the fifties who has most frequently an urinary tract infection or a prostatic adenoma. The roentgen findings are multiple out-poutchings of the lumbar ureter. Several factors are combined (constitutionnal, urinary tract infection, disordered ureteral-motility) to explain the creation of diverticules in the areas of weakness of ureteral wall, where penetrate the vessels.
