Benign fibroepithelial polyp of the ureter: A case report

Ureteral fibroepithelial polyp: A case report

Ureteral fibroepithelial polyps are rare, accounting for approximately 2–6% of all ureteral tumors. They can be diagnosed by ultrasonography, computed tomography, and retrograde pyelography; however, diagnosis can be difficult. Management is by resection of the polyp, and endoscopic resection is the standard treatment. Partial ureteral resection and ureteral reconstruction may be necessary depending on the size and location of the polyp. Imaging follow-ups for approximately a year post-surgery are recommended. This clinical case report aimed to highlight a case of a fibroepithelial ureteral polyp that was managed by endoscopic resection.
