Follow-up of a case of retroperitoneal fibroses treated sequencially via right side autotransplant and left uterolysis with wrapper of posterior preperitoneal fat.
We present a case of retroperitoneal fibrosis treated with a renal autotransplantation in a patient inicially treated with endourologic measures and corticotherapy without success. The extense ureteral affectation was the indication to carry out an autotransplant. The follow-up is of nine years, with the function of the renal unity still preserved. We checked the literature for the therapeutic possibilities, medical as much as surgical, of the retroperitoneal fibrosis with special attention to the usage of the refractory IRF to other treatments.
