The coexistence of different subtypes of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) within a single kidney is an extremely unusual entity. Presented herein is the case of a 57-year-old man with two RCC of chromophobe and papillary histology. Very few reports in the literature describe double or triple synchronous renal neoplasms. To our knowledge this is the first report of this RCC subtype combination, which might trigger further investigation on the RCC pathogenesis theories.
单个肾脏内存在不同亚型的肾细胞癌(RCC)是一种极其罕见的情况。本文介绍了一例57岁男性患者,其患有两种组织学类型分别为嫌色性和乳头状的肾细胞癌。文献中很少有关于双发或三发同步性肾肿瘤的报道。据我们所知,这是这种肾细胞癌亚型组合的首例报告,这可能会引发对肾细胞癌发病机制理论的进一步研究。
