    Abstract:
    A 78-year-old man presented huge hydronephrosis with a calculus in the left kidney, and underwent left nephroureterectomy under the diagnosis of renal pelvic and ureteral tumor. Histological examination disclosed renal pelvic and ureteral tumors featuring mixed histologic types of carcinoma. Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging was superior to computed tomography (CT) in its complete, detailed demonstration of the renal pelvic lesions. The imaging characteristics of CT, MR imaging, ultrasonography, and retrograde ureterography were discussed in the report.
