Squamous cell carcinoma of the ureterovesical junction after renal transplantation

A case of squamous cell carcinoma of the bladder occurring at the ureterovesical junction in a renal transplant recipient is presented. References are made to ureteral obstruction in transplanted kidneys, the broader field of squamous cell carcinoma of the bladder in non-transplanted patients and the relationship of malignancy to transplantation. We anticipate that an ever increasing number of these unusual cases will be forthcoming in the urological literature as renal transplantation develops.
