title: Implantation metastasis in ureter from a colonic adenocarcinoma.
abstract: Metastasis to the ureter is very rare. In most published cases, the diagnosis is only made at postmortem examination or when gross metastasis is present. This report presents a case in which the metastasis from a colonic tumour occluded the ureteral lumen from inside.
