Ureterocele Causing Recurrent Urinary Tract Infection: A Case Report
Main Article Content
Abstract
We report a case of a 45-year-old male with recurrent urinary tract infections secondary to a left ureterocele, illustrating the clinical implications of this congenital anomaly. Despite recurrent symptoms managed with antibiotics, definitive diagnosis was achieved through ultrasound and CT urography, which confirmed the ureterocele. The management involved antibiotic therapy and surgical intervention by endoscopic puncture, leading to symptom resolution and prevention of further infections. This case highlights the importance of considering ureterocele in the differential diagnosis of recurrent UTIs, particularly when initial management fails to provide lasting relief.
