We are reporting a very rare case in the current era of modern diagnostics of an incidentally detected Transitional Cell Carcinoma(TCC) renal pelvis, detected pathologically when Right laparoscopic radical nephrectomy specimen of lower pole mass(RCC) was processed, with no prior suspicion of TCC clinically or pre-operative imaging. A 75-year-old female with 4 × 4cm strongly enhancing lower pole renal mass on CTscan underwent a Laparoscopic Radical Nephrectomy. Surprisingly histopathological examination revealed a focus of low-grade TCC, arising from renal pelvis, completely separate from lower pole mass which was a clear cell RCC.
我们报告了一例在现代诊断时代极为罕见的病例,即偶然发现的肾盂移行细胞癌(TCC)。该病例是在对右下腹极肿块(肾细胞癌,RCC)进行腹腔镜根治性肾切除术标本进行病理处理时发现的,临床及术前影像学检查均未事先怀疑有TCC。一名75岁女性,CT扫描显示右下极肾肿块呈4×4cm强烈强化,接受了腹腔镜根治性肾切除术。令人惊讶的是,组织病理学检查发现一个起源于肾盂的低级别TCC病灶,与作为透明细胞肾细胞癌的下极肿块完全分开。
