Abstract
Thyroid-like follicular carcinoma of the kidney(TLFCK), is a rare and recently described subtype of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) till now only 27 cases reported in the literature. An extremely rare tumor with low malignant potential and exhibits morphologic features that strikingly resemble primary follicular carcinoma of the thyroid gland. A 70 years old male presented to our department with complaints of left flank pain and nausea since 15days. CECT abdomen and pelvis revealed a single well defined, large mildly enhancing mass lesion in the lower pole of left kidney with solid and cystic components. Radical nephrectomy was done. Microscopy and IHC confirmed the diagnosis of TLFCK.
