CT and MR appearance of subureteric Teflon and periuretral Teflon migration: a case report

We present the computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) findings of a case in which an adult patient underwent subureteric injection of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE; Teflon) (STING) to correct vesicoureteral reflux. We report the appearance of periureteral PTFE migration mimicking cysti...

Summary:We present the computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) findings of a case in which an adult patient underwent subureteric injection of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE; Teflon) (STING) to correct vesicoureteral reflux. We report the appearance of periureteral PTFE migration mimicking cystic pathology.
