A member asked:

Hi there,my dad had a catheter for after urine retention due to known bph about a year back. 4 days later hospital removed it after u/s. i am not sure if they also did u/s of kub. but now he has an apple size urothelial ca in one renal calyx ?

Your question is not clear. Catheterization for BPH and renal carcinoma are unrelated. If you feel the hospital should have investigated him for renal cancer, that is debatable.
