[A mixture of transitional cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma of the renal pelvis].
An 85-year-old male was admitted to our hospital with the chief complaint of a left hydronephrosis. Computed tomography (CT) revealed left hydronephrosis and a left ureteral tumor. We performed left nephroureterectomy. Microscopically, the neoplasm was composed of a mixture of transitional cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. To our knowledge, this case is the 14th report of mixed carcinoma of the upper urinary tract.
