Imaging of Urinary Tract Diverticula

Includes Appendix
Urinary tract diverticula include pelvicalyceal diverticula (PSD), ureteral
diverticula (UD), bladder diverticula (BD), and urethral diverticula (UTHD).
Urinary tract diverticula are mainly congenital abnormalities, although they
may also be acquired. In most cases the priority method for their diagnostics,
especially if there are no clinical implications for a long time, is diagnostic
imaging. Its algorithm, the same as most disciplines of radiological diagnostics in urology, includes, first of all, ultrasonography (USG) as well as X-ray
and magnetic resonance diagnostics. Treatment methods for urinary tract
diverticula vary from case monitoring to surgery which has been mostly
endoscopic during the past decades. This monograph comprises a revised,
modified, and amended text of Diagnostic Imaging of Renal Diverticula, a
book issued in 2007, and rewritten chapters on UT, BD, and UTHD. The
book sums up experience in ultrasonic, X-ray, and magnetic resonance diagnostics acquired from 1988 to 2013 in the urology clinic of Yaroslavl Medical
Academy, namely, in “Avtodisel” Clinic Hospital, and in Railway Clinical
Hospital at the Yaroslavl Station of the Russian Railways, JSC. We made a
special attempt to provide our own observations as well as book data for all
aspects of diagnostics of urinary tract diverticula in maximum detail in order
to illustrate this study.
I would like to express sincere gratitude to my dear colleagues working in
the abovementioned institutions, the specialists in ultrasonic and X-ray diagnostics and urologists of Yaroslavl and Moscow for their assistance and kind
interest in this study. You are welcome to provide any opinions and especially
critical comments on this book .
