Rectal Signet Ring Cell Carcinoma Masquerading as Urinoma: A Case Report

Abstract

A 26-year old man presented with a history of right-sided lion pain and microscopic hematurie for the last 2 weeks. Radiologic studies demonstrated urinoma secondary to ureteric obstruction at the pelvic brim. Laparotomy revealed an unsuspected recto-sigmoid adenocarcinoma compressing the right lower ureter producing the urinoma. Colorectal carcinoma is a rare cause of urinoma.

Keywords: Urinoma, ureter, adenomacarcinoma, rectosigmoid
