[Cavernous haemangioma as the cause of ureteral pyelic junction obstruction].
OBJECTIVE
To report one case of cavernous haemangioma in the upper urinary tract.


RESULTS
29-year-old female presenting with right renal colic whose IVP showed UPJ obstruction. Dismembered pyeloplasty was performed and pathology reported a cavernous haemangioma as the cause of stenosis.


CONCLUSIONS
Cavernous haemangioma, a rare upper urinary tract pathology, should be considered in the differential diagnosis of causes of UPJ obstruction.
