Core Tip
Core Tip: Coincidence of chronic lymphocytic leukemia/small lymphocytic lymphoma (CLL/SLL) and urothelial carcinoma (UC) is very rare. We report a case of synchronous renal pelvis carcinoma with SLL. This is the first case of coincident CLL/SLL and upper tract UC in the literature. Cancer patients should always be investigated to rule out the possibility of a synchronous or metachronous malignancy.
