Abstract:
Urinary obstruction leads to hydronephrosis, distention of renal pelvis and calices with urine accompanying atrophy of renal parenchyma. Especially longstanding incomplete obstruction may lead to giant hydronephrosis and terminate in destruction of the organ We experienced a case of giant hydronephrosis combined with ureteral stone in 50 year old man, so we report this case with review of literatures.
