Forty percent of renal cell carcinomas (RCCs) in childhood are characterized by translocation involving transcription factor E3 (TFE3) family members. Here, we describe a case of TFE3-positive RCC in which metastatic relapse to the mediastinal lymph nodes and pulmonary nodules was treated with single-agent sunitinib, a multitargeted tyrosine inhibitor. Complete radiologic remission was achieved after only 3 courses of treatment, and surgical exploration of metastases failed to identify any residual viable disease. The published experience of sunitinib in TFE-RCC is limited, and prospective evaluation of its activity in a larger number of patients is warranted.
