Data from control groups of 17 carcinogenicity studies in Sprague-Dawley and 10 carcinogenicity studies in Fischer 344 (F-344) rats were reviewed and evaluated to determine the incidence and pathology of TCC. Renal pelvis TCC were observed in 1 male and 1 female Sprague-Dawley rat and in 1 male F-344 rat. Metastasis from TCC to the lung was observed in 1 male Sprague-Dawley rat. Detailed histopathological features of this tumor are described and discussed.
