“…Osaka et al [10] reported a case of SCC of the ureter that was successfully treated by neoadjuvant cisplatin with irinotecan followed by nephroureterectomy with no recurrence or metastasis for 38 months postoperatively. Beddok et al [5] reported similar success with an 80-year-old male with SCC of the pelvic ureter with carboplatin and etoposide.…”

“…The incidence of EPSCC in North America is estimated to be between 0.1 and 0.4% [3]. EPSCC of the upper urinary tract, in particular, has had no more than 40 cases reported in the literature [4, 5]. The current knowledge of these rare tumors is limited, and treatment recommendations are mainly based on case reports, single-institution case series, or the extrapolation of results from pulmonary SCC [1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8].…”

Small cell carcinoma of the urinary tract is an extremely rare disease with very few cases reported in the literature. Its clinical course is aggressive, and the prognosis is poor. Here, we present a case of metastatic extrapulmonary small cell carcinoma of the upper urinary tract in a 74-year-old African-American male. He initially presented with gross hematuria, 20-pound weight loss, and abdominal pain for 2 months. CT imaging showed a 14.0 × 7.0 × 16.0 cm retroperitoneal mass within the left renal fossa; biopsy revealed a carcinoma which was positive for synaptophysin and chromogranin. The patient also had detectable neuroendocrine cells in his urine cytology, confirming the diagnosis of small cell carcinoma. He was treated with carboplatin and etoposide as extrapolated from the treatment of its pulmonary counterpart. Due to the rarity of urinary tract small cell carcinoma, no randomized studies exist to guide therapy or management.

Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) of the ureter are rare, with less than 40 cases described in the literature. A majority of tumors described are poorly differentiated tumors with a poor prognosis. We present the case of a moderately differentiated atypical carcinoid NET of the ureter with a good postoperative outcome. A literature review was also performed to identify similar cases to compare their management and postoperative outcomes.
