Mixed epithelial and stromal tumor (MEST) is very rare neoplasm of the kidney, commonly affecting women at menopausal age. MEST is usually considered a benign tumor with low risk of local recurrence or distance metastases. Our case presents a case of a 66 years old male patient with a complex cystic lesion of the left kidney incidentally diagnosed on urinary tract computerized scan (CT) performed for other reasons. The patient underwent a radical nephrectomy. The pathology report came back as MEST of the kidney. The present case report highlights the asymptomatic presentation of MEST as a benign renal masses.
混合性上皮和间质瘤(MEST)是一种非常罕见的肾脏肿瘤,通常发生于绝经年龄的女性。MEST通常被认为是一种良性肿瘤,局部复发或远处转移风险较低。我们的病例是一位66岁男性患者,因其他原因进行泌尿系统计算机断层扫描(CT)时偶然发现左肾有一个复杂的囊性病变。患者接受了根治性肾切除术。病理报告显示为肾脏MEST。本病例报告强调了MEST作为一种良性肾肿块的无症状表现。
