A 35 year-old woman in an annual check-up.
Ultrasound detected a left kidney mass without any sign or symptom.
MSCT confirmed the left kidney tumor which may belong a RCC or oncocytoma.
Histopathological result was an RCC, clear cell carcinoma.
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) accounts for the majority (80% to 90%) of kidney cancers. Most RCCs have a clear cell histology. Often asymptomatic and diagnosed incidentally.
Most cases are sporadic, although several hereditary
clinical kidney cancer syndromes have been identified.
