Abstract
Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) may be systemic or isolated in distribution and may involve virtually any organ or tissue in the body. Retroperitoneal PAN with ureteral obstruction as the first manifestation of the disease, to our knowledge, has not been previously reported. Two such unusual cases are described.
