This case concerns a 54 year old man presenting with septicemia, which was diagnosed as a fibrous ureteral stenosis consecutive to an intrapelvic dislocation of the acetabulum twenty years before. The unnoticed ureteral lesion consisted in a retraction through the acetabulum after the reduction of the dislocation. The lesion was treated by a ureterovesical reimplantation on a vesical psoas hitch, and led to partial recovery of renal function.
