Hemangioma of Ureter: A Diagnostic Dilemma—Managed Surgically Using Robotic Platform

Ureteral hemangioma is a rare entity and few cases have been reported in the literature. Nearly all cases are diagnosed on pathologic examination postoperatively. In this study we report a 22 years young male patient presented with left-sided flank pain and hematuria. He underwent computed tomography, cystoscopy, left retrograde pyelogram, left side ureteroscopy, and urine cytology. Ureteroscopy showed a left upper ureteral narrowing with bulging mass above it. Robot-assisted segmental ureterectomy with end-to-end anastomosis over 6/26 Double-J stent was done and histopathologic examination of excised ureter reported ureteral hemangioma.
