description Primary renal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a rare primary malignancy of the kidney. Diagnosis is usually delayed because of its lack of characteristic clinical and imaging features and inherent aggressive nature.

The diagnosis of primary renal SCC was established based on the histopathology after right nephrectomy.
