Abstract

On the basis of 3 own cases it is reported on a new alternative treatment in otherwise inoperable cases in patients with urothelium tumours of the upper urinary tract. The histologically ascertained transitory cell carcinomas are treated by extracorporeal tumour resection and autotransplantation with calicovesicostomy. Main indications are malignant tumours of the renal pelvis and of the ureter in individual kidneys and in bilateral affection.
