Metastatic cancer to the ureter and kidney from malignant lymphoma. A review of the literature.

Metastasis to the ureter may evolve by direct or indirect extension and invasion from the most common malignant tumors, such as breast, colon and lymphoma. A case of an unusual extension of metastatic infiltration to the ureter, kidney and other intra-abdominal and retroperitoneal structures is reported. Such a case has not been presented roentgenographically in the urologic or radiologic literature.
