title: Ureteritis cystica: a rare cause of ureteral obstruction.
abstract: Ureteritis cystica is a rare, but recognized cause of ureteral obstruction. To our knowledge, we present the first case where obstruction secondary to the cystic component is confirmed with a functional study. Additionally, we present high-quality radiologic and endoscopic images of two cases of ureteritis cystica.
