Hydrouretonephrosis caused by uterine prolapse after gellhorn pessary displacement
we report a case of acute renal failure and urosepsis due to bilateral ureteral obstruction in a patient with a displaced pessary. The patient was a 77-year-old woman with ischemic heart disease and stroke induced hemiplegia. Her procidentia was successfully treated for many years with a 3.25 ″ Gellhorn pessary indicated for impossibility to retain a ring [1]. Previous ultrasound of kidneys did not demonstrate any hydronephrosis. A few days after the last outpatient visit for pessary change she was referred to the emergency room with fever and voiding difficulties.
