Ureteral lower end tumor in a patient thought to have passed a stone: A case report

Abstract

Upper urinary tract tumors are rare diseases that can be difficult to diagnose clinically and appear about 1%. Recently, it seems that there is an increase in the incidence of ureteral tumors. However, it is not known if this increase is due to the development of diagnostic measures or to a true increase in the incidence. The etiology of ureteral tumors are similiar to those of the bladder and gross hematuria is the most frequent symptom. Even if many imaging systems are used to diagnose, ureterorenoscopy is a gold value. In this report, we evaluated a 48 years-old male with ureteral tumor and presented with renal colic like ureteric stone and treated for this reason.
