Title : Primary mid-ureter squamous cell carcinoma: A diagnostic conundrum in the absence of traditional risk factors

Abstract:

Upper urinary tract carcinomas are mostly urothelial in origin and Squamous cell carcinoma of ureter only constitute 1-1.6 % of all urothelial tumors. Risk factors include chronic irritation, urolithiasis and chronic hydronephrosis. Prognosis is poor as 40 % of cases present with distant metastasis. Definitive diagnosis is through histology and treatment includes radical nephro – ureterectomy, chemotherapy , radiotherapy or a combination of these treatment. We present a case of 81 year old with local advanced squamous cell carcinoma of ureter but without any traditional risk factors
