ABSTRACT
A case of benign ureteric polyp resected in one piece endoscopically is reported. The authors emphasize the role of ureteroscopy in the differential diagnosis of ureteric tumours. Unnecessary nephroureterectomies or open explorations can be avoided by the use of this procedure.

ABSTRACT
Five cases of spontaneous rupture of the renal parenchyma are reported. Two patients had renal cell cancer, one sustained acute purulent pyelonephritis secondary to stone related ureteral obstruction, one suffered from aposthematous pyelonephritis without obstruction, while one had chronic pyelonephritis and a cortical cyst as probable predisposing factors. Aetiology and important points concerning diagnosis and therapy are discussed.
