Of 507 patients with renal tumours 36 (7.1%) presented with primary epithelial neoplasms of the renal pelvis. Histological investigation revealed benign papillomas in 3 (8.3%) cases. These patients underwent resection of the renal pelvis along with the tumour. Nephro-ureterectomy was performed in 33 patients, of whom 27 (75%) had it for transitional cell carcinoma, 5 (14%) for squamous cell carcinoma and 1 (2.7%) patient for solid carcinoma of the pelvis. Results of surgical treatment vary with the process stage so that the more advanced the stage, the poorer is the prognosis. High efficiency was shown of nephro-ureterectomy. At 5 years 9 of 13 operated on are alive without signs of metastatic disease.

Objective: This study investigated the efficacy of comprehensive management and predictable inflammatory markers for idiopathic retroperitoneal fibrosis (iRPF)-related hydronephrosis outcomes.

Methods: Patients with iRPF-related hydronephrosis underwent surgical (ureteral stent and/or nephrostomy tube placement) and medical (corticosteroid-based multiple immunosuppressants) management were classified according to stent-indwelling outcomes. Univariate analysis of clinical profiles was conducted to screen possible predictors of hydronephrosis remission.

Background: Fibroepithelial polyp (FEP) in the renal pelvis is a rare benign tumor of the urinary tract. Treatment of such diseases varies from local resection to radical nephroureterectomy, either by open or endoscopic surgery. This study aims to show our successful experience in percutaneous endoscopic resection of FEP.

Background: The treatment of transplant ureteral stricture (TUS) has been a great challenge, and there is limited experience with indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence-guided robotic Boari flap-pelvis anastomosis to identify ureteral stenosis segments (especially long-segment) and their postoperative blood supply. We report case series of ureteral strictures treated with ICG fluorescence-guided robotic Boari flap-pelvis anastomosis in our center.

Case Description: We retrospectively collected clinical data of six patients diagnosed with long-segment even full-length TUS who underwent robotic Boari flap-pelvis anastomosis with the assistance of modified distribution of robotic ports and ICG fluorescence between June 2022 and June 2024, focusing on postoperative renal function, stenosis recurrence, and urinary fistulae.

Background: Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the renal pelvis is a rare cancer within the urinary system. However, the prognosis is not entirely satisfactory. This study aims to develop a clinical model for predicting cancer-specific survival (CSS) at 1-, 3-, and 5-year for White Americans with renal pelvic TCC.

We report a rare case of urinary bladder neuroendocrine tumour (NET) in a young, non-smoking man. He had no known risk factors and no comorbidities. After being diagnosed with a bladder tumour while being investigated for flank pain and poor renal function, he was treated with transurethral resection of the bladder tumour and deroofing of ureters bilaterally.
