Renal primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET) is a rare entity. It should be differentiated from other primary renal malignancies. The differentiation of the malignant small round cell tumors may be challenging; however, it is essential for better management of the patient. We report a 45-year-old male having complaints of pain in the abdomen, hematuria, and mass in the abdomen for 6 months. Abdominal and pelvic sonography finding showed cystic-solid, right renal mass suggestive of malignancy. On histopathology diagnosed as malignant small round blue cell tumor suggestive of primitive neuroectodermal tumor. On immunohistochemistry, CD99 positivity confirmed the diagnosis of primary PNET of the kidney. We are presenting this case for its rarity, clinical presentation, and pathological findings.
肾原始神经外胚层肿瘤(PNET)是一种罕见的疾病。它应与其他原发性肾恶性肿瘤相鉴别。恶性小圆形细胞肿瘤的鉴别可能具有挑战性;然而,这对于更好地治疗患者至关重要。我们报告一例45岁男性,有腹部疼痛、血尿和腹部肿块6个月的症状。腹部和盆腔超声检查发现右肾有囊实性肿块,提示为恶性。组织病理学诊断为提示原始神经外胚层肿瘤的恶性小圆形蓝细胞肿瘤。免疫组化显示CD99阳性,证实为原发性肾PNET。我们因该病例的罕见性、临床表现和病理结果而展示此病例。
