In Israel, there are many such professionals, but the most outstanding urologists are gathered at the Top Ichilov clinic. Here, the treatment of oncourological diseases is at the highest level. This is evidenced by the number of patients whose treatment has yielded the desired effect.

The Top Ichilov clinic is the optimal choice for patients with ureteral cancer.

Treatment of Ureteral Cancer at the Top Ichilov Clinic

Qualified oncologists at the Top Ichilov Medical Center are thoroughly skilled in advanced methods of ureteral cancer treatment. Most often, malignant neoplasms of the ureter are surgically excised, as the radical method is generally the most effective.

If the ureter is totally affected by the cancer process, the oncologists at the Top Ichilov clinic perform nephroureterectomy – resection of the ureter and kidney. However, such a radical procedure is indicated only when the opposite kidney has high functional capabilities. If the neoplasm is located in the lower part of the ureter, it is removed along with the adjacent walls of the bladder. Surgical intervention is accompanied by the formation of a uretero-cystoanastomosis.

Adjuvant chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or topical immunotherapy may be used during postoperative rehabilitation. Often, effective drug therapy is employed by oncologists at the Top Ichilov clinic to achieve regression of the pathological process in patients and long-term stabilization of the disease.

In addition to the listed methods, specialists at the Top Ichilov clinic also actively use other innovative approaches to treat ureteral cancer.

Diagnosis of Ureteral Cancer in Israel

Primary malignant tumors of the ureter are extremely rare. Typically, ureteral cancer develops as a result of metastasis from neoplastic processes in other organs. Implantation metastases from renal pelvis neoplasms are most commonly observed.
