Zusammenfassung:A 72-year-old female visited our hospital with the complaint of macroscopic hematuria on Jan. 29, 1990. Cystoscopic examination revealed hematuria flowing out from the left ureteral orifice. A 1 cm mass was found in the left upper calyx by retrograde pyelography (RP). Urine cytology obtained by RP was class IIIb. Later, the mass was found in the left middle calyx by CT. Repeated RP revealed no mass and the wall of the left upper calyx was irregular. Washing cytology from the left renal pelvis was class V. Left total nephroureterectomy was performed on Feb. 2, 1990. Macroscopically, no tumor mass was apparent. Microscopically, transitional cell carcinoma in situ was widely spread from the left renal pelvis to the middle ureter. The preoperative upper calyceal mass was thought to have been a blood clot. At twelve months after the operation, there has been no evidence of tumor recurrence
