Need to unblock: Not sure of the question. A blocked ureter should be unblocked. Depends on the disease causing the problem. Can be something outside the ureter-extrinsic like a bowel disease or scarring, or inside the ureter-intrinsic like a stone or blood clot, etc. Until a definitive treatment is done a tube can be placed in the kidney or the ureter.
