Abstract
We present a case of a 67-year-old man with intussusception of the right ureter associated
with a fibroepithelial polyp. The concentric sign and line sign are characteristic
radiological findings in intussusception, and these findings could be seen in the
present case. Although this entity is rare, its radiological findings are specific.
Multidetector row computed tomography and its multiplanar reconstruction make the
diagnosis feasible, although the qualitative diagnosis of the tumor was difficult.
