(4) it is diagnostic of obstruction of the cystic duct
The classifications of obstruction based on clinical and pathologic findings are as follows: (1) simple mechanical obstruction without vascular compromise; (2) strangulation obstruction in which the mesenteric vessels to the obstructed segment are occluded; and (3) closed-loop obstruction in which both the proximal and distal limbs of the involved loop are blocked.
The ureters, aorta, and inferior vena cava are most at risk; however, the aorta is quite resistant to compression and the inferior vena cava has multiple collaterals so that ureteral obstruction is the most common presentation of this disease process.

 Urologic Issues During Pregnancy
While ultrasound is safe under all circumstances of pregnancy, its utilization in diagnosing obstruction is of limited value owing to its suboptimal view of the ureter and presence of hydroureteronephrosis as a physiologic concomitant of pregnancy.
Specifically, decreased ureteral peristalsis, hydronephrosis, infection and calcium supersaturation all enhance the stone-forming propensity in pregnancy, whereas augmented excretion of stone inhibitors such as citrate, magnesium and glycosaminoglycans tend to neutralize the former stone-enhancing factors (65,66).
Because retention is related to bladder neck obstruction caused by uterine retroversion and posterior movement of the cervix (especially in the first trimester), treatment entails manual repositioning of the fundus or placement of a pessary (111,112).
