“…Papillary and clear cell RCCs were the most frequent types of multiple renal masses. Two reports of large numbers of patients concluded that 5-6% of multiple ipsilateral renal tumors develop a contralateral metachronous recurrence and this risk is 5 times that of patients with a sporadic single tumor [18,20]. We suggest that multiple ipsilateral synchronous RCCs of different histologic subtypes need to be followed closely and operations for each mass are necessary.…”

“…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 [17]. The fact that the pathological concordance rate is as low as 67.3% and the grade concordance rate is 62.5% [18] suggests that if a biopsy is indicated preoperatively, each nodule should be biopsied for diagnosis [19]. Different tumors will have different prognoses and degrees of aggressiveness.…”

“…While ve cases involved multiple clear cell RCCs, one presented papillary and clear cell RCCs, whereas the other had papillary RCC with metanephric adenoma. Two reports of large numbers of patients concluded that 5-6% of multiple ipsilateral renal tumors develop a contralateral metachronous recurrence and this risk is 5 times that of patients with a sporadic single tumor [23,24]. We suggest that multiple ipsilateral synchronous RCCs of different histologic subtypes need to be followed closely and operations for each mass are necessary.…”

“…Awareness of the coexistence of multiple synchronous tumors of different histology within the same kidney is important in managing such cases, especially when planning for nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) and active surveillance for some renal masses. 11 Knowing the fact that the pathological concordance rate can be as low as 67.3% and the grade concordance rate even lower, 62.5% 17 implies that if biopsy is indicated preoperatively, or in intraoperative setting for frozen section biopsy, each of the multiple nodules should be biopsied; because different tumors will carry different prognosis rates and will vary in aggressiveness. 16 Using needle biopsy was not successful in determining the histological subtype of renal masses with much reliability.…”
