Abstrakt: Background: A phyllodes tumor (PT) is a biphasic fibroepithelial lesion that is most commonly found in breast tissue, whereas it is uncommon in ureter tissue. Only one case has been documented so far. There are some similarities in histology and clinical characteristics between this type of tumor and PT of the female breast: the lesions can be surgically removed, but some recur locally and invade directly into the breast. This case of a primary PT of the ureter is useful for pathologists and clinicians. Highlights: I feel such great honor to have this opportunity to submit my paper to your magazine. Although this is a case report, There is only one case report published until now regarding benign phyllodes tumor of the distal end of ureter. The mechanism of this tumor still remained unclear. Thus, We hope that our finding will help clinicians and pathologists to understand the diagnosis further, treatment and prognosis of clinical ureteral phyllodes tumors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
