Urothelial cancers of the upper tract are aggressive malignancies with a propensity for distant metastases. Transitional cell carcinoma can also develop de novo in the ovaries and differentiation between these lesions requires immunohistochemistry. We report a case of right lower ureteric urothelial carcinoma with metastases to both ovaries. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of bilateral ovarian metastases from an upper tract primary, diagnosed with immunohistochemistry.
上尿路尿路上皮癌是具有远处转移倾向的侵袭性恶性肿瘤。移行细胞癌也可在卵巢原发发生，鉴别这些病变需要免疫组化。我们报告一例右下输尿管尿路上皮癌伴双侧卵巢转移的病例。据我们所知，这是首例经免疫组化确诊的上尿路原发性双侧卵巢转移病例。
