Primary ureteral tumours

The authors report on the clinical picture, diagnostics and therapy of ureteral tumours in 4 patients. The most important symptoms are haematuria and pain. Of the diagnostic possibilities retrograde ureterography is the most significant. Their own surgical solution was ureteronephrectomy with excision of the orifice. Also the conservative therapeutic measures were surveyed. The post-operative control for detecting early recurrences is considered important.
