Primary renal carcinoid tumours are extremely rare. To date, approximately 60 cases have been reported, mostly as case reports with only few series noted. The pathogenesis of this tumour is uncertain because neuroendocrine cells are not found in normal adult renal parenchyma. We report a case of primary renal carcinoid occurring in a horseshoe kidney in a 66-year-old patient. A clinical, histological and immunohistochemical picture of this tumour is presented.
原发性肾类癌肿瘤极为罕见。迄今为止，已报告约60例，大多为病例报告，仅有少数系列报道。由于在正常成人肾实质中未发现神经内分泌细胞，这种肿瘤的发病机制尚不确定。我们报告一例66岁马蹄肾患者发生原发性肾类癌的病例。本文呈现了该肿瘤的临床、组织学和免疫组化表现。
