Abstract
The prognosis is poor since most patients with MPC of the renal pelvis and ureter initially present with advanced disease. Stage for stage the prognosis is not different from that in nonMPC urothelial cell carcinoma. Surgery is curative in less advanced cases. However, radiotherapy and systemic chemotherapy appear to be ineffective.
