The second most common tumor of the kidney after renal cell carcinomas is tumor of uroe-pithelium. Mostly  observed tumor in this group is transitional cell carcinoma (TCC). TCC of renal pelvis is about 5% of all urothelial tumors. The most common complaint is on macroscopic hematuria and only 10 to 15% of patients have no symptoms.

In this article  52 year old male patient, who had a retroperito-neal cystic mass reaching up to 40 cm in size according to imaging techniques, was presented. Our case was discussed with the light of current literature.
