Objectives: This study aimed to emphasize the importance of accurate and timely diagnosis of acute abdominal pain with simple radiography by reporting a case of gastrointestinal perforation. Methods: We closely observed the diagnosis and progress of acute abdominal pain after biliary stent and reviewed the outline of gastrointestinal perforation. Results: Patient diagnosed with urethral cancer metastasis to lung and peritoneum was treated with complex Korean medicinal treatments to deal with anorexia, abdominal pain, jaundice and oliguria. During hospitalization, the patient's acute abdominal pain after biliary stent was diagnosed with gastrointestinal perforation by using plain chest and abdominal radiography. Conclusion: Using simple radiography to find out the emergency diseases such as perforation in acute abdominal pain is important clinically.

Bilateral renal obstruction is a rare critical condition, requiring a prompt diagnostic approach and treatment to restore the renal function. The most commonly observed obstructive uropathy in children is congenital malformation, such as posterior urethral valves and bilateral ureteropelvic junction obstruction. Malignant pelvic masses obstructing the ureter are widely reported in adults but are rarely observed in children. The treatment of ureteral obstruction related to pelvic malignancy is a therapeutic challenge with a median survival duration of 3-7 months in adults; however, pediatric patients with pelvic malignancy leading to ureteral obstruction had better outcomes, with a reported 5-year mortality rate of 20%, than the adult patients. Here, we report a rare case of bilateral ureteral obstruction associated with pelvic rhabdomyosarcoma presenting with acute kidney injury treated by ureteral diversion with double J stent, and concommittent emergency hemodialysis, leading to restoration of good renal function. We suggest that bilateral ureteral obstruction should be released as soon as possible using surgical or interventional approach to minimize the obstruction period, and subsequential chemotherapy may contribute to improvement of survival and recovery of renal function.
