A 72‐year‐old man complained of general fatigue and had low grade fever. Ultrasonography, excretory urography, retrograde urography, and computed tomography revealed left hydronephrosis due to a middle ureteral tumor. A nephroureterectomy was performed. The histological diagnosis was hyperkeratosis with a cholesteatoma.
