Primary transitional cell carcinoma of the ureter is a relatively rare cancer. A case of transitional cell carcinoma of the mid-portion of the ureter in an adult male has been studied cytogenetically and has been found to have trisomy of chromosome #7 (+7) as the only karyotypic abnormality. In an earlier instance of transitional cell carcinoma of the ureter, we observed trisomy 7 together with monosomy 9 and an isochromosome for 5p. The relation of this observation to the cytogenetic findings in transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder is discussed and their possible significance evaluated. The rarity of the cytogenetic findings in these tumors is stressed, as is the possible role played by the chromosomal change in this condition, which may possibly involve the c-erb B oncogene.
