title: Ectopic ureterocele in an adult with prolapse through the urethra.
abstract: 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.
