[Polyp fibroangioma of the ureter. Endoscopic treatment].

Fibroangiomatous polyps and its histological variants most often occur in the ureters of young adult. They may be multiple, and rarely occur in the renal pelvis. Microscopically, normal or hyperplastic urothelium cover loose, vascular, edematous, fibrous stroma that may be inflamed. Etiologic factors are unknown. Intermittent flank pain is the most common symptom; dysuria and hematuria occur less frequently. A case of fibroangiomatous polyps of the left ureter, in a 37-years old woman, is presented. We emphasize the endoscopic conservative treatment of this lesion as a valid alternative to the surgical approach; beside, it's important to obtain pre-operative histological finding, confirming the benign lesion.
