title: [Primary non-specific ureteritis].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To better understand primary non-specific ureteritis.
  
  
  METHODS
  The etiological, clinical, and pathological manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment of 3 cases of primary non-specific ureteritis were discussed.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Preoperative diagnosis failed. Uretero-ureterostomy was performed in 2 cases, and ureteroneocystostomy in one. The patients were free from hydronephrosis and ureteral dilatation.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Diagnosis depends on pathological manifestations, differentiation from secondary non-specific ureteritis, ureteral tuberculosis, negative X-ray of ureteral stone and ureteral carcinoma. Surgical intervention is effective with good prognosis.
