| Abstract: | Instead of nephroureterectomy with bladder cuff excision, nephron-sparing surgery can be considered in selected patients with non-muscle invasive upper urinary tract urothelial carcinoma. The role of kidney-sparing surgery has been established for the management of low-grade urothelial carcinoma. We report a solitary kidney patient with high-grade renal pelvis urothelial carcinoma treated with nephron-sparing surgery by ex vivo tumor excision and autotransplantation. The results of the surgery were excellent. |
