From haematuria to nephroureterectomy via urine cytology—A case study
First published: 23 July 2023
Abstract
Upper urinary tract urothelial carcinomas (UTUCs) are uncommon, accounting for only 5%-10% of urothelial carcinomas. Radical nephroureterectomy with bladder cuff excision is the standard treatment of high-risk UTUC. Therefore, accurate preoperative diagnosis, including the use of urine cytology, is essential for appropriate patient management. This case study details a patient's pathway from haematuria to nephroureterectomy.
