This paper describes a case of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the
ureter
which showed marked leukocytosis without any evidence of infection and
hematologic malignancies
. The level of serum granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) assayed by enzyme immunoassay increased and the immunohistochemical staining of the
ureter
tumor showed the presence of G-CSF in tumor cells. These findings indicate that SCC of the
ureter
produced G-CSF which stimulated leukocyte production in bone marrow and resulted in leukocytosis. To our knowledge, this is the first report of
ureter
tumor with leukocytosis producing G-CSF.
