Suzy,

Sounds inconclusive at this point. If it is just the ureter and they move fast, then maybe the kidney will be fine. Depending on how much of the ureter is a problem, it would seem like they could just remove the cancerous part (if it is cancer there) with the result being a shorter ureter.

In any case, I HOPE that further testing results in a conclusive "no problem".

Keeping my fingers crossed for you!

my last cyto was an all clear on my bladder that was only 3 weeks ago i already had nephrourectomy so uro was scanning my remaining kidney and ureter there seems to b some sort of tightning or nipping of ureter showing on ivp that is why i had ct scan i hav no symptoms and i am fit and well which i also was at my DX in the begining

Suzy,

I know this news has hit you hard. When will he be getting back to you? What other tests will he be performing since he is not 100% sure just from looking at the CT scan? Sending you a big ((Hug)) and hoping the CT is wrong.
