A case of hydronephrosis with a rare underlying cause in a 35 years old male is described. He reported with pain in the left lumbar region with a past history of left ureterolithotomy. The ultrasound and IVU studies were suggestive of left hydronephroureter. CT Scan showed left hydronephroureter with narrowing at the lower end of left ureter. Ureterorenoscopy (URS) confirmed polypoidal lesions in the left lower ureter, completely obliterating the lumen and involving the whole circumferential wall of the lower ureter. The biopsy of the lesion revealed an inflammatory polyp. Accordingly open surgical intervention was planned. Excision of the lower third of left ureter with ureteric reimplantation was done with a Boari flap. The histopathology report of the lower third of ureter confirmed inverted papilloma of ureter. The patient made a smooth postoperative recovery.

Article Synopsis
  • Sinonasal inverted papilloma (SNIP) has a high recurrence rate and the potential to become malignant, but its specific metabolic pathways and biomarkers are not fully understood.
  • RNA sequencing identified significant gene alterations related to the estrogen biosynthesis pathway and highlighted five key biomarkers (AKR1B10, CYP1B1, CYP2C19, CYP3A5, and HSD17B13) that were correlated with SNIP pathogenesis.
  • Functional analysis indicated that these biomarkers are involved in epithelial cell proliferation and EGFR signaling regulation, suggesting their potential as diagnostic and therapeutic targets for managing SNIP.

Background: Hyperostosis is a common radiographic feature of inverted papilloma (IP) tumor origin on computed tomography (CT). Herein, we developed a machine learning (ML) model capable of analyzing CT images and identifying IP attachment sites.

Methods: A retrospective review of patients treated for IP at our institution was performed.
