Idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis is proliferation of fibrous tissue with inflammatory process due to unknown etiology, that may involve the ureters and other retroperitoneal structures. The majority of reported cases have been treated surgically by ureterolysis or intraperitonealization of the ureters. Recently, successful management of retroperitoneal fibrosis by administration of steroids also has been reported. We report two cases of patients who underwent successful treatment of an idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis with high dose steroids therapy.

The retroperitoneal space of the posterior abdomen and the pelvic retroperitoneum contain the major neural, vascular and lymphatic supply to the pelvic viscera, the urinary system and colorectal system. A pain or mass in the pelvis may arise primarily from the reproductive organs, but it may just as easily arise from the retroperitoneal space, include the urinary tract and the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, the gynecologic surgeon should be aware of the various conditions associated with retroperitoneal mass and the correct management of these disorders. Hydroureter may misdiagnose as a pelvic mass or retroperitoneal mass. The cause of hydroureter is mainly secondary obstruction such as malignancy, idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis and pelvic disease but primary obstructive megaureter should be considered. This report describes a case of marked hydroureter, misdiagnosed as a hydrosalpinx by ultrasound.

We report a case of retroperitoneal fibrosis of uncertain cause, in which surgical ureterolysis could be established. The initial symptoms of patient were right flank dull pain and low abdominal discomfortness. At the multiple biopsy during ureterolysis, no neoplastic cell could be seen. After one month of discharge, advanced stomach cancer was found during evaluation of dysphasia and indigestion which appeared after discharge. So, the patient was placed on the conservative treatment after ureterolysis due to advanced stomach cancer.

Retroperitoneal fibrosis, although benign, has a malignant course due to an encasement and obstruction of the retroperitoneal structures, particularly the urinary system. The most common treatment is often a surgical exploration followed by urologic intervention. However, steroid or azathioprine therapy has been advocated, with varying results and major side-effects. Recently, the successful medical therapy in patients with an early stage and low malignant potential has been reported. Here we report a male patient who underwent successful treatment of an idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis with tamoxifen and prednisolone.

Inflammatory aortic aneurysm is rare cause of retroperitoneal fibrosis with ureteral obstruction. Although the treatment options for retroperitoneal fibrosis are variable, a surgical procedure is the best choice when this condition is combined with inflammatory aortic aneurysm. We report here on our experience with laparoscopic bilateral ureterolysis and intraperitonealization of the ureters for the patient suffering with retroperitoneal fibrosis that was caused by an inflammatory aortic aneurysm.
