ABSTRACT
We report a case of primary renal carcinoid tumor. Only 13 prior cases are documented in the literature. The tumor fulfilled both histologic and immunochemical criteria for carcinoid. In addition, we employed new diagnostic modalities (i.e., magnetic resonance imaging and chromogranin-A levels) not used in prior published reports. A review of the literature is presented.

ABSTRACT
Cholesteatoma of the upper urinary tract is a rare nonmalignant condition histologically characterized by keratinized desquamative squamous metaplasia. Most cases have been managed by extensive ablative surgery. We describe a new approach in the diagnosis and management of a patient with ureteral cholesteatoma using transurethral ureteroscopy and evacuation.
