Background: squamous cell carcinoma of renal pelvis is uncommon; it represents approximately the ten percent of all pyelic tumors. It is often associate with lithiasis or chronic renal infection. Clinical case: an incidental case of squamous cell carcinoma of renal pelvis is presented, associate to lithiasic obstructive uropathy, urinary sepsis, and weight loss.
