Ureteral stenosis due to recurrent Wegener's granulomatosis after kidney transplantation

LM Rich and WF Piering
Department of Medicine, Medical College of Wisconsin, Froedtert Memorial Lutheran Hospital, Milwaukee 53226.

The ureter is an unusual location for lesions of Wegener's granulomatosis (WG). A patient in whom recurrence of WG after kidney transplantation was manifested by obstructive uropathy due to granulomatous vasculitis (WG) at the ureterovesicle anastomosis, as well as nasal and lung involvement, is reported. The occurrence of WG in the ureter in relation to the processes causing ureteral obstruction and the recurrences of WG after kidney transplantation and its treatment are briefly reviewed.
