Abstract

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.
