Abstract:
A case of metachronous bilateral renal pelvic carcinoma was reported. A 55-year-old women underwent left nephroureterectomy for the left renal pelvis cancer in 2011, then she was diagnosed with right renal pelvis carcinoma because of intermittent hematuria in 2014.A transurethral ureteroscopic holmium laser resection of the right renal pelvic tumor, partial right pelvis resection and nephrostomy, instillation with hydroxycamptothecin were taken sequentially to delay the dialysis for 53 months. In 2018, the patient underwent right nephroureterectomy because of recurrence of right renal pelvic carcinoma. The patient was followed up for 17 months postoperatively and there was no recurrence. In this case, patient's renal function was protected by the premise tumor control through a variety of minimally invasive and pharmaceutical therapy, which can provide a reference for the kidney-preserving treatment of high-grade renal pelvis cancer.
