[A case of ureteral carcinoma at 11 years after radical cystectomy and rectal bladder reconstruction: a case report].

: We report a 74-year-old male who developed ureteral carcinoma after 11 years of radical cystectomy and rectal bladder reconstruction. The patient had right lumbago and high grade fever and right hydronephrosis. He was suspected to have right ureter tumor under the antegrade pyelography at the time of right nephrostomy, and ureter tumor was diagnosed by the combination of computed tomography and antegrade pyelography. Under this preoperative diagnosis, right nephroureterectomy was performed. The histopathological diagnosis was transitional cell carcinoma. Since the recurrence of urothelial cancer at 10 years after radical cystectomy is rare, we believe our case is useful for the establishment of long-term follow up of bladder cancer.
