The lecture presents the currently available data on the prevalence of upper urinary tract tumors, their etiology and epidemiology, and anatomical pathology. The clinical manifestations of the disease are stated. The bulk of the lecture is dedicated to the diagnosis of tumors of the renal pelvis and ureter. Treatment options, such as open and endoscopic surgery, radio- and chemotherapy, are discussed.
