Abstract
Synchronous bilateral upper urinary tract urothelial cancer (UTUC) is a very rare form of urothelial cancer. In patients with high-risk unilateral UTUC, radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) is the gold standard treatment. However, there is no consensus on the treatment for synchronous bilateral UTUC. Evaluation of the patient and the tumor is recommended. Bilateral nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) was performed on a 53-year-old patient who presented with high-risk synchronous bilateral UTUC, and the outcome was reported.
