title: A new proposal to risk stratify urothelial carcinomas of the upper urinary tract (UTUCs) in a predefinitive treatment setting: low-risk versus high-risk UTUCs.
abstract: Risk stratification of upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) patients and tumours is crucial for highlighting that an alternative to radical extirpative surgery now exists and should be considered for all patients who qualify as having low-risk UTUC.
