[Idiopathic progressive bilateral ureteral stenosis].
OBJECTIVE
To report one case of progressive bilateral ureteral stenosis without demonstrable etiologic cause.


METHODS
We diagnosed and treated a 73-year-old female patient who developed progressive bilateral distal ureteral stenosis without a demonstrable cause.


RESULTS
Surgery was carried out and the pathologic study showed a bilateral ureteral stenosis secondary to fibrosis and chronic unspecific inflammation.


CONCLUSIONS
Idiopathic ureteral stenosis is a rare clinical picture, more if progressive and bilateral.
