Abstract
|
|
|
|
A 23-year-old woman with systematic lupus erythematosus (SLE) presented with left flank pain and hematuria, after seven months of hospital treatment with prednisolone. Computed tomography (CT) of abdomen showed multifocal calcifications of bilateral ureteral walls and hydronephrosis by left ureteral stenosis. These calcifications may be associated with lupus-induced inflammatory reaction of ureteral wall. In this study, we also present review of the literature associated with the similar cases.
