Background: Fibroepithelial polyps of the urinary tract are rare
 tumors, and their occurrence in the upper urinary tract is highly
 unusual.
 Case Report: This study reports a 9-year-old boy who presented to
 our clinic with complaints of unilateral flank pain and macroscopic
 hematuria. The direct urinary system graph did not show stone
 formation; therefore, magnetic resonance urography was performed.
 This revealed a filling defect in the left proximal ureter. On cystoscopy,
 a polyp was seen in the orifice of the left ureter, extending along the
 ureter. The polyp was resected by laser ablation and removed from the
 ureter. Histopathologic examination revealed a fibroepithelial polyp
 comprising fibrovascular stroma covered with transitional epithelium.
 Conclusion: Although extremely rare, a fibroepithelial polyp should
 be considered in the differential diagnosis when a young patient
 presents with flank pain and macroscopic hematuria. Endoscopic
 procedures may be the treatment of choice for polyps located in the
 upper ureter.
