A 69-year-old man was referred to our hospital with a chief complaint of asymptomatic gross hematuria. After radiological evaluations, left nephroureterectomy with bladder cuff was performed under a clinical diagnosis of a left ureteral tumor (2 cm). Histological examination revealed a small cell carcinoma of the ureter (pT3, pN1). After the operation, adjuvant chemotherapy with irinotecan, etoposide and cisplatin was administered in combination with radiation therapy. At 14 months after the operation, there has been no evidence of recurrence. To our knowledge, this is the 22nd report of a small cell carcinoma originating from the ureter.

We report a case of sarcomatoid carcinoma of the ureter in a 82-year-old woman. She was admitted to our hospital with right hydronephrosis. A computed tomography (CT) and retrograde pyelography (RP) showed a solid tumor at right ureter with right hydronephrosis and 3 cm solid tumor on the right abdominal wall. She underwent laparoscopic nephroureterectomy and excision of abdominal subcutaneous tumor. Pathological diagnosis was urothelial carcinoma with sarcomatoid variant, pT3, grade 3 and abdominal wall metastasis. Other metastasis occured in left kidney and ileum about 1 month after the operation, and then she underwent laparoscopic partial nephrectomy and ileocecal resection. The histopathological diagnosis was sarcomatoid carcinoma with positive staining for granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF). The paient died of multiple metastases 5 months after first operation. As far as we know, this is the first report of G-CSF producing infiltrating sarcomatoid carcinoma of the ureter in Japanese paper.
