AB  - INTRODUCTION: Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis (XGP) is a type of chronic renal 
      inflammation that usually occurs in immunocompromised middle-aged women with 
      chronic urinary tract infection or ureteral obstruction induced by the formation 
      of ureteral stones. XGP with an incomplete double ureter is extremely rare. CASE 
      PRESENTATION: A 76-year-old woman was referred to our department to undergo 
      further examination for a left renal tumor that was detected by ultrasonography. 
      Dynamic contrast computed tomography (CT) revealed an enhanced tumor in the upper 
      renal parenchyma. Laparoscopic radical nephrectomy was performed based on a 
      preoperative diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma. Histological sections showed the 
      aggregation of foam cells; thus, XGP was diagnosed. CONCLUSION: We herein report 
      a rare case of XGP in the upper pole of the kidney, which might have been 
      associated with an incomplete double ureter.
