Abstract

Ureteroceles can be classified as intravesical forms which terminate inside the vesical cavity and ectopic ones which terminate in the vesical outlet, urethra, or elsewhere. Most intravesical ureteroceles do not require operative intervention, except when they are obstructive because of harboring calculi, upper tract dilation or infection, and when the function of the intramural portion of the ureter appears irreparably injured. Two cases of intravesical ureterocele including a calculus, occurring in female patients, 27 and 37 years old. are presented with a brief review of the literature.
