Abstract EN

A 61-year-old man presented with hematuria and intermittent right pelvic pain.

Intravenous urography showed a tubular filling defect and ureteroscopy a tumor in the right mid ureter.

Urine cytology and tumor biopsy showed nonmalignant results.

Open surgery was performed, and an intraoperative frozen section revealed a fibroepithelial polyp of the right mid ureter.

A fibroepithelial polyp is a rare benign lesion that can occur in childhood but is an important differential diagnosis of an upper urinary tract urothelial cell carcinoma in adults.
