There was observed a case of 17 years old male with a dominate ureteral and pelvic dilatation in spite of no anomalies of urinary bladder and no demonstrable anomalies of the ureter per se. The ureter represented normalsize at the part 6 cm from ureter orifice and dilatation in the upper part from there. According to operative and histological findings complete absence of the Waldeyer's sheath was defined. From the fact, it was concluded that extravesicalisation of intravesical ureter, change of urinary flow and next hypertrophy of ureteral muscular wall occured, as a result of imcomplete supporting of ureter by bladder wall, and furthermore intravesical ureter was dilatable longitudinally only for the reason that it consisted of only longitudinal musculature, while extra vesical ureter was also dilatable smooth muscle fibers, so extravesical ureter dilated as a whole. Although such a case has been called megaloureter or hydroureter because of no definition of the cause, it is considered that the word Hydroflux named by Hutch is the most suitable.
