The patient delivered at 36 weeks. Renal sonography confirmed the diagnosis of left urinoma, with moderate right pyelectasy with normal cortico-medullar differentiation. Urethro-cystoscopy confirmed our diagnosis. This case demonstrated a large urinoma caused by posterior urethral valve with left renal obstruction.
Case report 2:
A 40-year-old woman, G8P7 was referred to our antenatal unit at 28 weeks for a second opinion. There was no known family history of congenital disease, in particular urologic pathology. The patient did take any medication. The first and the second sonography were normal.
In our antenatal unit, our US investigation revealed a left urinoma (Image 7, 8). The right cortico-medullar differentiation seemed present. The bladder and the right kidney was normal with no ureterocele (Image 2). The amniotic fluid and fetal growth were normal. The diagnosis was confirmed at 30 weeks. But, the urinoma increased (Image 9,10).We decided to perform an urinoma aspiration during amniocentesis (46 XY). A few minutes after the aspiration of 1.6 litres of fluid, we observed a slow reaccumulation, without left ureteral dilatation.
We suspected an important left ureteropelvic junction obstruction (Image 11, 12).
The patient delivered at 36 weeks, because of polyhydramnios. The postnatal diagnosis confirmed the urological pathology. The left ureteropelvic junction obstruction was operated on day 2. A few days later, renal sonography revealed normal a kidney, with normal cortico-medullar differentiation. This case demonstrated a large urinoma due to ureteropelvic junction obstruction.
