Percutaneous nephroscopic resection of pyelocaliceal transitional cell carcinoma in solitary kidney
نویسندگان
چکیده
Percutaneous approaches to upper tract urothelial cancers have been performed in patients unsuitable for radical nephroureterectomy. We present two cases of transitional cell carcinoma involving the renal pelvis in either functional or anatomical solitary kidney, which were successfully treated by percutaneous nephroscopic resection using monopolar electrocautery.

Percutaneous Nephroscopic Surgery
With the development of techniques for percutaneous access and equipment to disintegrate calculi, percutaneous nephroscopic surgery is currently used by many urologists and is the procedure of choice for the removal of large renal calculi and the management of diverticula, intrarenal strictures, and urothelial cancer. Although it is more invasive than shock wave lithotripsy and retrograde urete...
متن کاملRetroperitoneoscopic renal pelvis resection as treatment of the urothelial tumor in a solitary kidney
Urothelial carcinoma of the upper urinary tract is relatively rare. The standard treatment is invariably radical nephroureterectomy. In selected cases organ sparing surgery is justified. We present the case of the tumor of the kidney pelvis in a solitary organ where laparoscopic approach was successfully applied.
متن کاملUreteric angioplasty balloon placement to increase localised dosage of BCG for renal pelvis TCC.
Endoscopic percutaneous resection of a renal pelvis transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) is a viable treatment option in those who would be rendered dialysis dependent following a nephroureterectomy. We report endoscopic percutaneous resection of an upper tract TCC recurrence in a single functioning kidney followed by antegrade renal pelvis BCG instillation with novel placement of inflated angiopl...
متن کاملSolitary Cerebellar Metastasis from a non-muscle Invasive Transitional Cell Carcinoma of Bladder
Brain metastasis from non muscle invasive transitional cell carcinoma of the urinary bladder occurs very rarely. Herein, a patient who underwent transurethral resection of bladder tumor and received intravesical bacillus CalmetteGuérin for pT1, G3 bladder carcinoma accompanied by carcinoma in situ, and who subsequently developed solitary cerebellar metastasis following 18 months cystoscopic fol...
متن کاملFDG-PET/CT and CT findings of a benign solitary fibrous tumor of the kidney: correlation with pathology
Herein, we report the F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) findings of a benign solitary fibrous tumor (SFT) of the kidney. The patient was a 63-year-old woman with a mass in the right kidney (10×9.7 cm), incidentally found on CT images. The CT scan showed a lobulated tumor arising from the hilum of the right kidney. The tumor consisted o...
