We report a case in which initially the wrong diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma with bone metastases was made. Nephrectomy and bone biopsy led to the right diagnosis of oncocytoma with transient osteoporosis. This report stresses the importance of pathological investigation and points to oncocytoma in the differential diagnosis of solid renal masses. In addition, the possible relationship between this tumour and migratory osteoporosis, which disappeared after surgery, is described.
我们报告了一例最初被误诊为肾细胞癌伴骨转移的病例。肾切除术和骨活检最终正确诊断为嗜酸细胞瘤伴短暂性骨质疏松。本报告强调了病理检查的重要性,并指出嗜酸细胞瘤在实性肾肿块鉴别诊断中的意义。此外,还描述了该肿瘤与术后消失的游走性骨质疏松之间可能存在的关系。
