Introduction: Standard treatment for renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) is radical/partial nephrectomy and unlike upper urothelial carcinoma, complete ureteral removal is not necessary nor is advised in RCCs as tumor recurrence in ureteral remnant has scarcely been reported. Here, we present a rare case of chromophobe RCC (ChRCC) metastasis in remnant ureter following radical nephrectomy and perform a literature review in this regard.
Case Presentation: A 66-year-old man presented with a CT scan-as a surveillance protocol imaging- showing a mass in ipsilateral remnant ureter 9 months after radical nephrectomy due to ChRCC while being completely asymptomatic.
Background: Bladder cancer, specifically transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) polyps, presents a significant healthcare challenge worldwide. Accurate segmentation of TCC polyps in cystoscopy images is crucial for early diagnosis and urgent treatment. Deep learning models have shown promise in addressing this challenge.
