A blockage in the ureters, which are the tubes that transport urine from the kidneys to the bladder, brought on by a malignant growth is known as ureteric obstruction from tumors. This can occur when a tumor presses against the ureter from the outside (extrinsic) or when a tumor grows directly inside the ureter (intrinsic).<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

In this, a tiny tube is inserted through the skin into the kidney to drain urine and relieve pressure brought on by blockages. It helps avoid kidney damage and infection and is usually recommended in cases of obstruction of the urinary tract caused by strictures, tumors, or stones. The process maintains kidney function, relieves symptoms right away, and is frequently used as a stopgap measure before surgery or additional treatment.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
