“…7 Endourological treatment of upper tract tumors sometimes may have a role. 8 This case demonstrates the highly unpredictable nature of RCC with regard to the location of spread. Our experience is that besides of routine examinations, one must always consider the residual and contralateral ureter as potential sites of metastatic disease and the need for adequate imaging of the ureters cannot be overstated.…”

Conservative treatment was generally proposed in patients with well-differentiated, monofocal tumors, patients with a solitary functioning kidney, simultaneous bilateral involvement or a significant reduction in renal function [12].…”
