Understanding Ureteric Stricture
Ureteric stricture is the narrowing of the ureter that blocks or slows the flow of urine from the kidney to the bladder.
The obstruction can lead to pressure buildup in the kidney, causing pain, infections, hydronephrosis, and kidney damage if left untreated.
Introduction
Ureteric stricture is a condition in which narrowing of the ureter restricts normal urine flow. It may occur due to surgery, stones, infections, or congenital abnormalities.
Common Symptoms
- Flank pain
- Recurrent urinary infections
- Decreased urine output
- Blood in urine
- Kidney swelling (hydronephrosis)
Treatment Options
- Ureteral stenting
- Balloon dilation
- Surgical repair
- Endoscopic procedures
- Reconstruction surgery
Recovery & Outlook
Most patients recover well after treatment and correction of the obstruction. Early diagnosis and timely intervention help prevent permanent kidney damage and long-term complications.
