The fibroepithelial polyps is a rare benign tumor, that can rise at any level of the upper urinary tracts with a major predisposition at the pyeloureteral junction. The exact etiology is not known, even if we remember that chronic irritation, stasis and infection sometimes caused by an associated calculus are important factors in the genesis of the tumor. The authors report 3 new cases with ureteral seat, of which one is associated with a calculus. This fact underlines the importance of an exact differential diagnostic with the carcinoma as well for the conservative treatment as for the prognosis which is favourable.
纤维上皮息肉是一种罕见的良性肿瘤，可发生于上尿路的任何部位，其中肾盂输尿管连接处更易发生。确切病因尚不清楚，不过我们知道，由相关结石有时引起的慢性刺激、淤积和感染是该肿瘤发生的重要因素。作者报告了3例输尿管部位的新病例，其中1例与结石有关。这一事实凸显了与癌进行准确鉴别诊断的重要性，这对于保守治疗和预后良好的情况同样重要。
