Ureteral incarceration in the symptomatology of hydronephrosis.
Renal colic symptoms may be caused by an aberrant vascular bundle that intermittently incarcerates the pyeloureteral junction. The authors describe 6 patients who were complaint free except for the period of fits and routine urological examinations showed normal findings. The patients had no subjective complaints after open surgery.
