| Core Tip |
Although urinary tract lymphoepithelioma-like carcinoma is rarely seen and no published guideline can be offered, we could still outline feasible principles from immunohistochemical evidence. In our previous experience, guideline of urothelial carcinoma at urinary tract can provide us a promising result. The case in this work comprises of most of the worst scenarios, including mixed histological type, muscular invasion, and involvement of lymph node. However, with left nephroureterectomy with bladder cuff resection and postoperative radiation therapy, our result stands superior to those other published literatures. Thus, in our experiences, the operative methods play the definite roles on patients’ prognosis. |
