    Abstract Retrocaval ureter, also known as a circumcaval ureter or pre-ureteral vena cava, is a rare entity in which the patient's ureter passes backward to the inferior vena cava (IVC). The IVC compresses the upper portion of the ureter resulting in varying degrees of hydroureteronephrosis. We report a case of a child with retrocaval ureter malformation that was incidentally diagnosed while investigating for intermittent right renal colic, which was successfully treated by subcostal pyeloplasty. This case highlights the importance of radiographic imaging to diagnose retrocaval ureter, with computed tomography as a definitive method, but other modalities, including magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, and pyelography, are also helpful.

    Abstract Cavernous hemangioma of the bladder is a benign and very rare vascular tumor. It can be isolated or part of a syndrome. Neither clinical symptoms nor imaging modalities lead to a definitive diagnosis as there are no specific findings on imaging studies or specific symptoms. Painless gross hematuria is the most common chief complaint and presentation and should never be underestimated. Here, we report a case of a large hemangioma of the urinary bladder in a young man who presented with recurrent recent episodes of painless gross hematuria and, surprisingly, with a previous episode of painless hematuria 15 years ago, which was treated successfully with partial cystectomy. We discuss the clinical features, evaluation, diagnosis, biopsy, management, the challenges encountered in treatment, and assert the value of tissue diagnosis and follow-up pattern and period. Due to the rarity of the tumor and lack of trials and evidence-based guidelines for management, treatment modalities vary and the risk for recurrence is questionable and not known.
