title: Collecting-duct carcinoma presenting as upper tract lesion with abnormal urine cytology.
abstract: A case of collecting-duct carcinoma associated with abnormal urine cytology is described. The finding of an abnormal cytologic examination, yet not typical of transitional-cell carcinoma (TCC), suggests that a close relationship between the cytology and histology of this uncommon malignancy may be demonstrated.
