We observed recently three cases of ureteral polyps including a case of multiple polyps. The first patient was a 33-year-old man with multiple polyps at the left upper ureter. The second patient was a 51-year-old man and the third 49-year-old man, and both cases were complicated with ureteral stones. We divided 88 ureteral polyps reported in Japan from 1970 to 1990 into polyps in children and those in adults. We further divided the individual polyps into single and multiple polyps and examined them clinically. Characteristic findings were obtained in polyps in children; namely, multiple polyps were dominant, almost all of them occurred at the left upper ureter and no cases were complicated with ureteral stones. Furthermore, many of the multiple polyps in adults occurred at the left upper ureter and few were complicated with stones as in the children. In conclusion, the ureteral polyps in children and multiple ureteral polyps in adults were similar in character and we presumed that some congenital factors might be involved in their occurrence.
