Clear cell tubopapillary renal cell carcinoma mimicking polycystic kidney disease: A case report

Clear cell tubopapillary renal cell carcinoma (CCTP-RCC) is a distinct histologic subtype of RCC recognized for its unique clinicopathologic and immunohistochemical features. A 72-year-old man with presumed polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and bilateral clear cell RCC (CC-RCC) underwent left radical...

Sumario:Clear cell tubopapillary renal cell carcinoma (CCTP-RCC) is a distinct histologic subtype of RCC recognized for its unique clinicopathologic and immunohistochemical features. A 72-year-old man with presumed polycystic kidney disease (PKD) and bilateral clear cell RCC (CC-RCC) underwent left radical nephrectomy and right partial nephrectomy 20 years ago at an outside hospital. On surveillance imaging, RCC recurrence was suspected and right radical nephrectomy was performed. Histologic and gross examination of the right remaining kidney was consistent with CCTP-RCC. Review of his original pathology report revealed both kidneys in fact represented CCTP-RCC, mimicking PKD.
