Abstract
-
Recently, primary ureteral tumors are more frequently reported in urological field even though considered as rare. We have observed a case of primary ureteral tumor confirmed with the cystoscopy and retrograde pyeloureterogram. Choice of operation is nephro-ureterectomy with removal of a cuff of bladder wall around the ureteral orifice. It is necessary for a physician to make the early diagnosis and removal of the tumor as soon as possible.
