- Abstract
The article reports on a case study on a 43-year-old woman with retroperitoneal fibrosis. The patient had a history of hypertension with progressive left-lower limb edema. She was seen with a severe left hydronephrosis and non-functioning left kidney through abdominal ultrasonography. She underwent surgical excision which made her limb edema subside over a period of time.
