A rare 8 cm long ureteral polyp causing asymptomatic macrohematuria was successfully removed. This case highlights the importance of investigating unexplained blood in urine, even without pain.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Surgical Pathology

Background:

  • Ureteral polyps are rare benign tumors.
  • Macrohematuria can be the only presenting symptom.

Observation:

  • A 62-year-old woman presented with asymptomatic macrohematuria.
  • Radiological imaging suggested a ureteral tumor.
  • Cystoscopy revealed a bladder tumor, with transurethral biopsy ruling out malignancy.

Findings:

  • Surgical polypectomy was performed.
  • An 8 cm fibrous polyp was successfully removed from the ureter.

Implications:

  • This case demonstrates the successful management of a large ureteral polyp.
  • Early diagnosis and surgical intervention are key for favorable outcomes in rare ureteral tumors.
