Neoplasm of uncertain or unknown behaviour: renal pelvis - what does this mean

Neoplasm of uncertain or unknown behaviour in the renal pelvis occurs when abnormal cells form in the renal pelvis, the area of the kidney where urine is collected and drained. these abnormal cells may grow uncontrollably and may or may not be cancerous. further testing is required to determine the nature and behaviour of the neoplasm.

What happens during the disease - neoplasm of uncertain or unknown behaviour: renal pelvis

The pathogenesis of neoplasm of uncertain or unknown behaviour in the renal pelvis is likely caused by the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells in the renal pelvis. this abnormal cell growth is thought to be caused by an accumulation of genetic mutations that occur over time. these mutations can cause the cells to grow and divide uncontrollably, leading to the formation of a tumour. this tumour can be benign or malignant and is usually diagnosed through imaging tests such as an ultrasound or ct scan.
