“…The 2020 European Society of Urology guidelines recommend that for single, <1 cm diameter, urological enhanced CT urography on which there is no surgery with preservation of the renal unit can be considered for low-grade upper urinary tract uroepithelial carcinoma with infiltrative manifestations, which allows for maximum tumour control while avoiding the side effects associated with radical resection. For certain special ureteral cancer patients, such as those with low malignancy and who must undergo surgery to preserve the renal unit, complete tumour resection with end-to-end ureteral anastomosis, ileal substitution ureterotomy or autologous kidney transplantation can be the main treatment (21)(22)(23). By contrast, when renal cancer is combined with ipsilateral ureteral cancer, total ureterectomy remains recommended.…”

Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma with ipsilateral ureteral urothelial carcinoma: A case report

It is very rare for different types of urological tumours to occur together, and it is even rarer for chromophobe renal cell carcinoma (CRCC) to be combined with ipsilateral ureteral urothelial carcinoma (UUC), and the symptoms are relatively homogeneous, mostly presenting as symptoms that can be observed in malignant tumours alone, and therefore are often easily missed. In the present study, a case of a patient who was admitted to the hospital for more than 3 months with no obvious cause of terminal carnivorous hematuria was reported, and ureteral carcinoma was considered in the preoperative diagnosis but not renal carcinoma. After completion of preoperative tests, laparoscopic right nephrectomy and right ureterectomy was performed. The postoperative pathological diagnosis was CRCC of the right side and low-grade UUC of the right side, and the patient did not show any significant abnormality at the postoperative follow-up. By discussing this case and reviewing the relevant literature, the present study provides clinicians with more insight.

Background Clear cell renal carcinoma is known for its propensity for metastatic spread. Common sites of metastasis are the lungs, bones, lymph nodes, liver, adrenals and brain, but all organs can be affected. Contralateral ureteral metastasis is a rare phenomenon, and only a few cases have been reported in the literature. Case presentation We present the case of a 58-year-old Caucasian patient with a single contralateral ureteral metastasis of a clear cell renal carcinoma. Conclusion Ureteral metastasis of clear cell renal carcinoma is very rare, and there is no well-established treatment. For patients with low metastatic spread/volume, the aim should be to preserve kidney function, and thus metastasectomy should be considered.
