The chief complications of @entity3807 RPF in the ureteric compression ab extrinseco by fibrotic tissue. In the period 1994 to 1999, we treated two cases of idiopathic RPF: the first case a 49 years aged @entity1 , presented a left hydronefrosis and bilateral ureteral displacement to the midline. RMN showed widespreads fibrotic tissue in the retroperitoneal space. At operation, the histological findings was that of aspecific @entity239 . The surgical procedure was ureterolysis and lateralization of both ureters with the aid of a wrapping with a pedicled omental graft. The @entity1 was also treated with metilprednisolon, 8 mg-die, for altogether twelve months, Now he is asymptomatic. The second case, a @entity1 aged 60, had a compression of both ureter by fibrotic tissue down to the pelvic tract; the histologic picture was the same of that of the first case. A difficult ureterolysis was carried on, plus an omentoplasty and a left ureteral reimplantation to the bladder. Medical treatment followed, following the above scheme. Seven months after surgery the @entity1 is well. This experience of ours urological complications of RPF is confirmatory of the importance of a sound surgical approach and of a tight follow up as well as a sustained corticosteroid therapy in order to prevent relapse.
