Abstract
We report a case of urothelial carcinoma of the upper urinary tract, which developed after prostatocystectomy. The patient was treated with instillations of 40 mg. mitomycin C in 40 ml. saline. No significant systemic side effects owing to perfusion of mitomycin C could be demonstrated. Complete remission of the small urothelial tumors occurred, as well as slight progression of a large pelvic carcinoma of the left kidney.
