Although nephroureterectomy remains the reference standard for the treatmen t of transitional cell cancer of the renal pelvis, advances in technology a nd techniques have made percutaneous management of select lesions feasible. We report our technique of staged percutaneous resection of a large renal pelvic transitional cell cancer. UROLOGY 58: 457-459, 2001. (C) 2001, Elsev ier Science Inc.
