The kidney, ureter, and bladder cancers have different cellular ancestries and thus constitute separate clinical entities. Most frequently, tumours of the renal parenchyma are referred to as kidney cancer in general. 90% of all renal malignancies are renal cell carcinomas (RCC), which are by far the most common type of kidney cancer. Urothelial carcinoma (UC; formerly known as transitional cell carcinoma) predominates in cancers of the renal pelvis, ureter, and bladder, which are a significant cause of morbidity and mortality.
