VALUE ASSESSMENT OF RENAL FUNCTION IN RENAL CELL CARCINOMA

Prognostic value of p53 in renal cell carcinoma

Background and Objectives: RCC is one of the most common genitourinary cancers. Accurate prediction of prognosis would be valuable for adjuvant trial design, counseling and effectively scheduling follow up visits. P53 is a tumor suppressor gene that expresses a protein that involved in both cell-cycle ar...

Sarcomatoid Transrormation of Chromophobe Renal Cell Carcinoma

prognostic value of p53 in renal cell carcinoma

background and objectives: rcc is one of the most common genitourinary cancers. accurate prediction of prognosis would be valuable for adjuvant trial design, counseling and effectively scheduling follow up visits. p53 is a tumor suppressor gene that expresses a protein that involved in both cell-cycle arrests after dna damage and apoptosis. presence of mutated p53 protein in tumors has been rel...

Dyspnea as the First Manifestation of Silent Renal Cell Carcinoma

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) accounts for only 3% of adult malignancies, and the lung is the most common site of metastasis of this tumor, which may be accompanied by pleural metastasis. However, solitary pleural involvement is very rare and its presentation with dyspnea as the first manifestation of RCC is extremely rare.We describe a 39-year-old male with episodes of dyspnea dating back 6...

Sarcomatoid Chromophobe Renal Cell Carcinoma with Heterologous Component

Clear cellrenal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common malignant renal tumor in adults, while chromophobe RCC (CRCC) is the third most common. 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...
