A 36-year-old woman presented with a six-month history of pain in the left hypochondrium and a massive splenomegaly. Ultrasonography, Doppler studies, and computed tomography could not distinguish between a haemangioma and a secondary deposit. Magnetic resonance ima...

We report a case of MCRCC in a 33-year-old male who presented with vague discomfort in the right flank for the last 1.5 years. Computed tomography (CT) scan revealed a multiseptate cystic mass in the upper pole of the right kidney. Surgically resected well-circumscribed cystic mass was formed entirely ...

The adequacy of surgical margins (SM) is a crucial issue for adjusting the volume of excision and for avoiding local recurrences, although the precise definition of an adequate margins width remains controversial. Moreover, other factors such as the biological behaviour of the tumor and subsequent proper systemi...
