“…There are a few reports on the role of VP in the diagnosis of upper urinary tract tumours. [1][2][3][4][5] VP can play an important role in organ-sparing nephroscopic tumour resection and traditional partial nephrectomy, especially in cases where a fibreoptic ureteroscopic examination cannot be performed (e.g., patients with ureteral strictures or high-risk, solitary kidney patients).…”

Virtual pyeloscopy (VP) plays an important role in the organ-sparing nephroscopic tumour resection and traditional pole resection, especially when a fibreoptic ureteroscopic examination cannot be performed. A 67-year-old man developed macroscopic hematuria. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) and cystoscopy revealed a lower calix renal stone and a 20-mm lower pyelon mass suggesting transitional cell cancer. An additional small satellite lesion in the pelvico-ureteral junction was supposedly present. Three-phase MultiDetector CT with VP showed a solitary 3 to 4-mm renal pelvic lesion beyond the known calix stone and lower pole mass. In our case, VP played an important role in the organ-sparing nephroscopic tumour resection and traditional pole resection.
