SCC of the kidney is a rare upper urinary tract neoplasm reported in the literature. The gradual onset of vague symptoms, lack of pathognomonic signs, and inconclusive radiological features make the disease unsuspected in most cases, therefore delaying diagnosis and treatment. It usually presents at an advanced stage, and the prognosis is often poor. A high index of suspicion is warranted in patients with chronic kidney stone disease.
