Renal cell carcinoma is extremely infrequent in children. We report a case of renal cell carcinoma in a 13-year-old male. Presenting manifestations were loin pain, fever, and weight loss. A palpable abdominal mass was found. Imaging studies showed a solid mass into the right kidney. Nephrectomy was performed and pathological examination demonstrated characteristic findings of renal cell carcinoma. This report emphasizes that renal cell carcinoma should be included in the differential diagnosis of renal masses in children.
肾细胞癌在儿童中极为罕见。我们报告一例13岁男性肾细胞癌病例。临床表现为腰痛、发热和体重减轻。发现可触及的腹部肿块。影像学检查显示右肾有一实性肿块。进行了肾切除术，病理检查显示有肾细胞癌的特征性表现。本报告强调，肾细胞癌应纳入儿童肾肿块的鉴别诊断。
