Le résumé fourni par la source
A 79-year-old male with phenacetin abuse was admitted to our University Hospital for treatment of asymptomatic gross hematuria. Intravenous urograpdy and computed tomography revealed synchronous right renal pelvic carcinoma and bladder carcinoma. Right nephroureterectomy and transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TUR-Bt) were performed. Histologically, right renal pelvic tumor and bladder tumor were both transitional cell carcinomas of grade 2, pT1, and grade 1 = 2, Ta, respectively. Additionally, pathological examination revealed two distal ureteral tumors, which were transitional cell carcinomas of grade 2, pTa. He also had a history of heavy tobacco-smoking (20 cigarettes per day for 50 years). We discuss the relationship between transitional cell carcinoma and phenacetin abuse as well as the influence of tobacco-smoking, and review the literature.
