case_images: CT examination revealed that left ureteral calculus was located in the middle segment of the ureter at the umbilical level, left ureter effusion in its middle and upper part, and left renal pelvis hydronephrosis continuously to ureter effusion (Figures 1 and 2) after admission.
case_images: Left renal pelvis effusion (star) with visible small stone shadow (gray arrow).

case_images: CT examination revealed that left ureteral calculus was located in the middle segment of the ureter at the umbilical level, left ureter effusion in its middle and upper part, and left renal pelvis hydronephrosis continuously to ureter effusion (Figures 1 and 2) after admission.
case_images: CT shows left renal atrophy, renal cortex thinning (white arrow), and right kidney compensatory hypertrophy (black arrow).

case_images: The left kidney had atrophied, and the renal cortex became thinner (Figure 3) when examined by B-ultrasound and CT after his admission.
case_images: A mixed signal shadow (white arrow) can be seen as a quasielliptical on MRI T2WI, located between the rectum and bladder. The left high signal shadow (hollow in middle) is the water bag of the Foley catheter located in the bladder at the inner mouth of the urethra.
