title: Eosinophilic ureteritis. Report of a case.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  We present the case of a patient with eosinophilic ureteritis.
  
  
  METHODS
  The patient was admitted with pain on the right renal fossa, and after several imaging tests, a mass was found on the right ureter, compatible with urothelial neoplasia on the right ureter.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Right nephroureterectomy was performed and the histopathological diagnosis was eosinophilic ureteritis
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Eosinophilic ureteritis is a rare entity with an unclear etiology,which is not easily distinguished from urothelial tumours. In the differential diagnosis we must take it into account whenever we find a ureteral mass associated to eosinophilia.
