[Hypernephroma associated with primary bladder tumor. Report of a case].
OBJECTIVE
To present a case of tubular renal adenocarcinoma associated with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder.


RESULTS
A case of tubular renal adenocarcinoma associated with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder in a 42-year-old patient is described. Patient evaluation included intravenous urography, nephrotomograms, renal and bladder ultrasound evaluation and cystoscopic examination with biopsy. The patient underwent nephroureterectomy and partial cystectomy with subsequent radiotherapy and intravesical chemotherapy. At two-years follow-up, there is no evidence of disease progression.


CONCLUSIONS
The appearance of various early-stage urological tumors in the same patient, is uncommon. Although a review of the literature showed that these cases were considered a medical curiosity, it should be taken into account that there is an increasing number of new cases.
