ABSTRACT
Primary ureteral tumor accounts for an estimated about 1 percent of all tumors of the urinary tracts. We observed one case of the ureteral tumor in 65 years old male patient and he was treated by complete nephroureterectomy with an excision of a cuff bladder wall around ureteral orifice. A case of primary ureteral tumor was reported with a brief review of the literatures.

Malignant fibrous histiocytoma is uncommon pleomorphic tumor of the soft tissues possibly arising from the histiocyte. A case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the retroperitoneum stimulated our interest in this uncommon and pathologically intriguing lesion. So we report a case of malignant fibrous histiocytoma in the retroperitoneal space.

Reiter`s disease can no longer be considerded a rare and relatively benign syndrome, defined by the clinical triad of urethritis, conjunctivitis and arthritis. In the etiology of Reiter`s disease, it can be regarded as a post-infectious syndrome after certain enteric disease or veneral infection and usually occurs in patients between 20 and 40 years old, with a male to female ratio of 10:1 in dysenteric cases and 50:1 in veneral cases. The diagnosis of Reiter`s disease should quite obious when the clinical manifestation of non specific urethritis, conjunctivitis, arthritis and mucocutaneous lesions. Recently, HLA-B27 antigen is strogly associated with Reiter`s syndrome and may be diagnosticlly useful when HLA-B27 is positive. There is no specific therapy for Reiter`s disease, but conservative treatement is aviable of acute stage oir recurrence of the disease. We have experienced a case of Reiter`s syndrome in 27 years old male and reproted with review of some literatures.

Prenephrectomy therapeutic renal artery embolization by injecting gelfoam into therenal artery was done in a 47 year-old female patient with hypernephroma. This technique facilitated nephrectomy and decreased blood loss. A post-infarction syndrome characterized by flank pain, fever and nausea also occurred in this patient.
