Extrinsic and intrinsic lesion may obstrcut the ureters and may give rise to hydroureter, hydronephrosis, and pyelonephritis
Unilateral obstruction typically results from proximal intrinsic or extrinsic causes (e.g., stones, neoplasms etc.)
bilateral obstruction arises from distal causes, such as nodular hyperplasia of the prostate
characterized by a fibrotic proliferative inflammatory process that encases retroperitoneal structures and causes hydronephrosis. Sclerosing Retroperitoneal Fibrosis
recently described entity associated with sclerosing retroperitoneal fibrosis IgG4- related disease
Other etiologies for retroperitoneal fibrosis - drug exposures (ergot derivatives, β-adrenergic blockers), -inflammatory conditions (vasculitis, diverticulitis, Crohn disease), - malignancies (lymphomas, urinary tract carcinomas) -
predisposes to ascending pyelonephritis and loss of renal function. Abnormal connections between the bladder and the vagina, rectum, or uterus may create congenital vesicouterine fistulae. Vesicoureteral reflux
pouch-like invaginations of the bladder wall that vary from less than 1 cm to 10 cm in diameter and may be congenital or acquired. Diverticula
due to a focal failure of development of the normal musculature or to a urinary tract obstruction during fetal development. Congenital diverticula

Cytotoxic agents, such as cyclophosphamide may cause hemorrhagic cystitis

characterized by the presence of lymphoid follicles within the bladder mucosa and underlying wall. Follicular cystitis
manifested by infiltration of the submucosa by eosinophils, typically is a nonspecific subacute inflammation but may also be a manifestation of a systemic allergic disorder. Eosinophilic cystitis,
All forms of cystitis are characterized by a triad of symptoms: (1) frequency, which in acute cases may necessitate urination every 15 to 20 minutes; (2) lower abdominal pain localized over the bladder region or in the suprapubic region; and (3) dysuria (pain or burning on urination).
- an unpleasant sensation (pain, pressure, discomfort) perceived to be related to the urinary bladder, associated with urinary tract symptoms of more than six weeks duration, in the absence of infection or other identifiable causes.” - characterized by intermittent, often severe, suprapubic pain; urinary frequency; urgency; hematuria; and dysuria.
