Abstract

An obstructive ureteral calculus from a transplanted kidney is a rare condition, the prevalence of which is 0.4 to 1% in cases of kidney graft. This calculus is generally detected during diagnostic imaging exams when the patient is either asymptomatic or has a reduction in urinary output. The definitive diagnosis is determined using computed tomography and ultrasound. Resolutive treatment is normally surgical. This paper reports the case of a patient with a transplanted kidney who presented with anuria and ureteral calculus, which was treated with laser ureterolithotripsy.
