Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the renal pelvis is extremely rare and hardly to be diagnosed due to its lack of specificity in clinical manifestations and traditional imaging features. We reported a case with history of multiple operations for double kidney stones, who was admitted to our hospital twice due to "right kidney ureteral stones, left kidney complex stones, chronic renal insufficiency and urinary tract infection" . During this period, a total of 6 surgeries were performed. In the first 19-day hospitalization, right transurethral ureteroscopic lithotripsy and right percutaneous nephroscope lithotripsy(PCNL)were performed respectively. And 20 days later, the patient was admitted to hospital again for management of left complex kidney stones, and the left side PCNL was performed for 4 times within 27 days. During the two hospitalizations, no tumor was reported during the three times of contrast-enhanced CT examination of the urinary system. The patient continued to have fever after the 4th time of left PCNL, with failure of anti-infection treatment. Then, the of the left renal pelvis was considered clinically, and left nephrectomy was suggested after communication with the patient and his family members. Postoperative pathology confirmed renal pelvis SCC. After surgery, the patient’s temperature was back to normal and then discharged. The patient died 3 months after discharging due to the systemic metastasis.
