          Abstract

          Primary adenocarcinomas of the renal pelvis and ureter are rare and account for less than 1% of all malignancies at this site. We report a case of primary papillary mucinous adenocarcinoma of the ureter that clinically mimicked genitourinary tuberculosis. Early diagnosis is important for the better outcome.

            Options in the management of tuberculous ureteric stricture

            Apul Goel, D. Dalela (2008)
            Ureteric stricture is a feared manifestation of genitourinary tuberculosis (TB) with the commonest site being the lower ureter. The purpose of this review is to discuss the management options for this condition. Literature search was done using PubMed and all articles on TB and ureteric stricture were reviewed published between 1990 till September 2007. The exact site and length of stricture must be defined with radioimaging (intravenous urography, retrograde, or antegrade pyelography) and renal function be quantified. The treatment of stricture mostly requires some kind of intervention after a brief period of antituberculous medicines with or without steroids. For uncomplicated/simple strictures (short segment, passable, with renal function >25%, good bladder capacity) endourologic option should be used which usually means double-J stenting with or without balloon dilatation. For complicated/complex strictures (long segment, dense fibrosis, with renal function <20%, small bladder capacity) regular surgical options should be considered which usually means ureteroureterostomy or ureteropyelostomy for upper ureteric strictures, intubated ureterostomy, or transureteroureterostomy for midureteric strictures, psoas hitch/Boari flap for lower ureteric strictures or ileal ureter/autotransplantation for whole length/multiple strictures.

              Primary adenocarcinoma of the ureter: report of a case.

              Taeko Naruse, Nobuaki Honda, Yoshiaki Yamada … (2007)
              The patient was a 66-year-old man who presented with asymptomatic hematuria. Left hydronephrosis was observed on drip infusion pyelography (DIP), and retrograde pyelography (RP) was performed because the image of the ureter was poor. On RP, stenosis was observed in the left ureter at the L5 vertebral level. The same findings were obtained by antegrade pyelography in combination with nephrostomy. A white-colored tumor was observed at the site ofstenosis by flexible pyeloscopy, and biopsy was performed. Adenocarcinoma was identified by histopathological examination. Total left renal nephroureterectomy was performed after its diagnosis as primary adenocarcinoma of the ureter (T2, NO, MO). To our knowledge, this is the 12th case reported in Japan.
