Abstract

Tubulocystic renal carcinoma is an uncommon neoplasm. We present a case of a patient presenting with multiple renal colic. A nodular cystic lesion was an incidental sonographic finding which increased in size during subsequent follow-ups. The patient underwent radical nephrectomy and tubular renal carcinoma was diagnosed histopathologically and immunohistochemically.

Keywords: Carcinoma renal tubuloquístico; Tubulocystic renal carcinoma.
