Ectopic ureterocele in an adult with prolapse through the urethra.
Most ureteroceles in adults are incidental findings at excretory urography. Symptomatic ureteroceles are unusual and prolapse of the ureterocele is particularly uncommon. We describe a woman with prolapse of a ureterocele through the urethra, which resulted in strangulation and partial necrosis of the ureterocele wall.
