  • Title: Extracorporeal surgery and autotransplantation for carcinoma of the pelvis and ureter.
    Author: Pettersson S, Brynger H, Johansson S, Nilson AE.
    Journal: Scand J Urol Nephrol; 1979; 13(1):89-93. PubMed ID: 368978.
    Abstract:
    Multiple transitional cell tumours of the renal pelvis and proximal ureter of a solitary kidney were successfully managed by total ureterectomy, extracorporeal subtotal resection of the renal pelvis, autotransplantation, and calicovesicostomy. The method permits resection of a maximum of the uroepithelium of the upper urinary tract at the same time as it preserves available renal parenchyma. It also implies a new and exciting approach to the renal pelvis for endoscopic postoperative control and local treatment of the malignancy.
