Abstract:
Bilateral fibroepithelial polyps of the ureter are scarcely seen benign mesodermal tumor that occurs most often at the proximal ureter. Most patients present with either hematuria due to necrosis at urethral polyp of flank pain secondary to partial ureteral obstruction. The Diagnosis may be established with intravenous pyelography, retrograde pyelography, ureteroscopy and CT. Local resection is the treatment of choice. We report a case of bilateral fibroepithelial polyps of the ureter with a brief review of literatures.
