Diagnosis

Differential diagnosis

Differential diagnosis of ureteral centripetal deviation:

The ureteral centripetal deviation sometimes needs to be differentiated from primary retroperitoneal fibrosis: the fibrotic thickening of the inflammatory abdominal aortic aneurysm is mostly located in front of and on the side of the aneurysm, often without thickening, and primary retroperitoneal Fibrosis often thickens fibrosis throughout the aorta, and the aorta usually does not expand.

Imaging studies can be diagnosed.
