Laparoendoscopic single-site surgery radical nephrectomy.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:The gold standard treatment for upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC) is radical nephroureterectomy (RNU). The role of endoscopic resection is limited to low-risk patients. In this study, we present our 30-year experience in the endoscopic management of UTUC. METHODS:In this retrospective study, we iden...
