Urology. 1985 Jan;25(1):57-9. doi: 10.1016/0090-4295(85)90565-5.

Abstract

An episode of unilateral ureteral obstruction secondary to sarcoidosis is described. Corticosteroid treatment resulted in prompt and complete resolution of the obstruction and associated lymphadenopathy. We believe this represents the first reported case of ureteral obstruction secondary to sarcoidosis.
