Case 30-2009 -- A 77-Year-Old Man with Recurrent Transitional-Cell Carcinoma of the Ureter
Mercredi 23 Septembre 2009 - 08:56 - 5 mois, 3 semaines depuis - Santé - New England Journal of Medicin A 77-year-old man was seen at this hospital because of a mass in the left ureter and cytologic examination of a urine specimen that was positive for transitional-cell carcinoma. Eight years earlier, right nephroureterectomy was performed because of transitional-cell carcinoma of the right renal pelvis. Several years later, cytologic examination of urine specimens was positive for transitional-cell carcinoma, but no tumor was evident on examination until 10 months before evaluation, when circumferential thickening of the left ureter was seen on imaging studies. A management decision was made. |
