ABSTRACT
Primary transitional cell carcinoma [TCC]] of the ureter accounts for less than 1% of all malignancies of upper genitourinary tract. Ureteral stump after radical nephrectomy may develop malignancy very rarely TCC being the commonest. Definite risk exists if the urinary bladder harbored TCC. Presence of TCC of the urinary bladder and persistent urinary tract infections in a nephrectomized patient may indicate closer evaluation
