Abstract:
Retrocaval ureter is a rare congenital anomaly and its embryologic error is probably one of the vena cava rather than the ureter. Since 1893, when Hocbstetter first described this condition, about 200 cases have been reported. Herein we added a case of retrocaval ureter in 26 years old man.
