Metastasis of renal cell carcinoma to the distal ureteral stump beyond recommended baseline surveillance duration
A 71-year-old male with history of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) 6-years status post nephrectomy presented for gross hematuria. Cystoscopy revealed a bulge of the right ureteral orifice, and transurethral resection confirmed RCC metastasis to the ureteral stump. Ureterectomy with bladder cuf...

| description | A 71-year-old male with history of clear cell renal cell carcinoma (RCC) 6-years status post nephrectomy presented for gross hematuria. Cystoscopy revealed a bulge of the right ureteral orifice, and transurethral resection confirmed RCC metastasis to the ureteral stump. Ureterectomy with bladder cuff excision was performed, and the patient is currently undergoing aggressive imaging surveillance. This is the 57th case of metastasis of RCC to the ureteric stump, and this case occurred beyond baseline surveillance recommendation of five years. Potential mechanisms of metastasis of RCC are reviewed, and RCC surveillance is discussed. |
