Ipsilateral synchronous clear and papillary renal cell carcinoma: A case report and review of the literature

Abstract: Clear cell renal cell carcinoma and papillary renal cell carcinoma are the most common types of renal tumors. However, coexistence of both tumors in the same kidney is a rare condition.We report a 56-year old male who was found to have ipsilateral synchronous clear cell and papillary renal cell carcinoma in the left kidney. Review of related literature is provided to estimate the prevalence of similar cases.

“…Awareness of the coexistence of multiple synchronous tumors of different pathologic neoplasms in the same kidney is important for managing such cases, and nephron-sparing surgery or active surveillance may be warranted for some renal masses [22]. The fact that the pathological concordance rate is as low as 67.3% and the grade concordance rate is 62.5% [23] suggests that if a biopsy is indicated preoperatively, each nodule should be biopsied for diagnosis [8]. Different tumors will have different prognoses and degrees of aggressiveness.…”

“…Although multiple synchronous renal tumors are rare, the incidence of sporadic multifocal renal tumors at the time of diagnosis as reported in the literature is 4–20% [ 8 10 ]. This implies that observing multiple tumors in the kidney is relatively common.…”

“…3 Alhusban et al conducted a literature review in 2017 that found 47 cases of ipsilateral synchronous ccRCC and pRCC, of which their synchronous presence represent around 13% to 14% of multifocal RCCs. 4 Thus, although a wide range of incidence of multifocality has been reported in the literature, synchronous ccRCC and pRCC remain a rare finding.…”
