Retroperitoneal fibrosis is a fibroproliferative process involving the retroperitoneum. It may be idiopathic or can be caused by methysergide ingestion, perianeurysmal inflammation, a leaking aneurysm, urinoma or irradiation. The symptoms and signs of retroperitoneal fibrosis are variable, and for diagnosis, imaging is therefore essential. The typical imaging finding is a fibrotic lesion in front of the lower vertebrae with ureteral obstruction. Atypical lesions, however, may occur in other parts of the retroperitoneum. The aim of this report is to describe the clinical features and various imaging findings of etroperitoneal fibrosis.
