title: [Urothelial carcinoma of the ureter excised using percutaneous nephrostomy].
abstract: We report on a case of ureteral carcinoma submitted to resection by percutaneous nephrostomy. After considering the different therapeutic alternatives, we believe that the approach described herein is very interesting in well-selected cases since it is a highly conservative surgical procedure that permits followup and reoperations relatively easily.
