A 60-year-old Japanese male with a chromophobe cell carcinoma of his left kidney is reported. The tumor, 18 x 27 mm in size, was incidentally found by abdominal ultrasonography. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a well-demarcated solid tumor arising from the lower pole of the left kidney. Histopathological examination of the surgically removed tumor revealed that i...

Sarcomatoid Chromophobe Renal Cell Carcinoma with Heterologous Component

Any subtypes of RCC can undergo sarcomatoid differentiation, but heterologous differentiation in sarcomatoid area is very rare in RCC. Here a61-year male is presented with hematuria and palpable mass. Clinicoradiologically, RCC was considered and left r...
