RENAL CELL CARCINOMA WITH THREE TYPES OF MORPHOLOGIES- A RARE ENTITY
Journal Title: Era's Journal of Medical Research - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Renal cell carcinomas(RCC) are the most common solid lesions of kidney with commonest subtype being clear cell type. Very few studies have reported synchronous presentation of three different morphological variants of RCC. We present a case of renal cell carcinoma in a 50 year old female presenting with renal mass. Microscopic examination showed presence of papillary, clear cell and collecting duct types of morphologies, which is a rare finding. Hence thorough sectioning and microscopic examination should be done to rule out possibility of simultaneous presence of different morphological varieties of RCC.
