Retroperitoneal malignant xanthogranuloma. 1 case and a literature review].

A case is reported, the 33rd to be published in the literature, of malignant retroperitoneal xanthogranuloma. The tumor involved 2 cm of the right ureter at the junction between the middle and upper thirds. The middle third of the ureter was removed and ureteral continuity established by end to end ureteral anastomosis. The patient died fourteen months later probably from metastases, though the presence of these was not confirmed.
