Spontaneous ureteric rupture (SUR) is an unusual entity associated with perinephric or retroperitoneal extravasation of urine. Patients with SUR are often presented with severe and progressive abdominal or flank pain. It is commonly related to the obstruction of genitourinary system, among which urinary calculi represents the most frequent cause. Prostate cancer with ureteral orifice invasion can lead to ureteral obstruction, which can also be a threat to SUR. Herein, we present a case of a 68-year-old male with SUR after prostate cancer invaded the left ureteral orifice. To our best knowledge, this is the first case of SUR secondary to ureteral obstruction from prostate cancer.

Precise surgical resection of prostate cancer (PCa) is a significant clinical challenge due to the impact of positive surgical margins on postoperative outcomes. Fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS) enables real-time tumor visualization using fluorescent probes. In this study, we synthesized and evaluated an indocyanine green (ICG)-based PSMA-targeted near-infrared probe, , for intraoperative imaging of PCa lesions.
