renal pelvis

The cancer may come back in the renal pelvis, ureter, or other parts of the body.

This contrast is used to show calcifications at the renal pelvis.

The renal pelvis and ureters are lined with transitional cells.

The renal pelvis is the location of several kinds of kidney cancer.

Most cancers in the renal pelvis are transitional cell carcinoma.

However, in some cases the division is so complete as to give rise to two separate parts, each with its own renal pelvis and ureter.

Most transitional cell cancer of the renal pelvis and ureter can be cured if found early.

It also forms the major and minor calyces and the renal pelvis.

Imaging studies of the ureters and renal pelvis.

Transitional cell cancer can form in the renal pelvis or the ureter or both.

Ureteroscopy: A procedure to look inside the ureter and renal pelvis to check for abnormal areas.

Stage 0is is a flat tumor on the tissue lining the inside of the renal pelvis or ureter.

A clinical trial of segmental resection of the renal pelvis.

The urine collects in the middle of each kidney in a large cavity called the renal pelvis.

The process used to find out if cancer has spread within the renal pelvis and ureter or to other parts of the body is called staging.

The following stages are used for transitional cell cancer of the renal pelvis and/or ureter:

This is a surgical procedure to remove localized cancer from the renal pelvis without removing the entire kidney.

Pyelectasis is a dilation of the renal pelvis.

These and other symptoms may be caused by transitional cell cancer of the renal pelvis and ureter.

In stage 0, abnormalcells are found in tissue lining the inside of the renal pelvis or ureter.

Treatment of regionaltransitional cell cancer of the renal pelvis and ureter is usually done in a clinical trial.
