| Popis: | Prolonged use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is known to cause renal papillary necrosis and, in rare cases, can cause sloughing of renal papillae with subsequent ureteral obstruction. We report the first documented case of an adult patient presenting with bilateral ureteral obstructions, secondary to bilateral papillary necrosis from chronic NSAID use. He subsequently underwent bilateral ureteral stent placement with rapid recovery of renal function. |
