Ureteral tumors have large differences in pathological grading and staging, and the prognosis is very different, and the survival period may vary from several months to lifetime. If the tumor is detected at an early stage, and the tumor cells are small in size, well differentiated and without infiltration, a better outcome can be achieved by resection of the tumor and surrounding tissues. If it is a progressive ureteral tumor, using comprehensive treatment, usually surgical resection followed by a systematic chemotherapy regimen, the prognosis is poor, with a 5-year survival rate of only about 50%. Systemic chemotherapy is often used for advanced patients, with a five-year survival rate of <10%. In addition, the combination of hydronephrosis generally indicates disease progression and a poor prognosis. Once the diagnosis of ureteral tumor is confirmed, the prognosis is relatively good due to early staging, and timely medical treatment should be sought to avoid progression of the disease.
