Abstract
Upper urinary tract urothelial carcinomas (UTUCs) are uncommon, accounting for only 5%‐10% of urothelial carcinomas. Radical nephroureterectomy with bladder cuff excision is the standard treatment of high‐risk UTUC. Therefore, accurate preoperative diagnosis, including the use of urine cytology, is essential for appropriate patient management. This case study details a patient's pathway from haematuria to nephroureterectomy.
