“…The clinical presentation of the patient is often nonspecific. Patients usually present with insidious onset dull atypical flank pain and hematuria with occasional febrile episodes [ 2 , 5 ] as was seen in our cases. Imaging modalities including USG and CECT/18-Fluoro-deoxyglucose (FDG)-positron emission tomography often show features suggestive of hydronephrosis with mass lesions involving pelvicalyces with extension into the renal parenchyma.…”

Primary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the renal pelvis is one of the extremely rare tumors encountered in the kidney. It poses a diagnostic challenge for both the clinician and pathologist alike due to the sheer rarity of its occurrence and the multitude nature of its clinical presentation. A review of the literature over the last few decades shows just a countable number of cases documented, each bearing the testimony of the aggressive nature of this subtype. We hereby report three cases of SCC of the renal pelvis origin received at a tertiary care hospital in North India.

“…These causative agents often lead to chronic irritation of the urothelial lining which may become a prelude to the development of leukoplakia. These changes may further evolve to undergo neoplastic transformation over a period of time, thus giving rise to this uncommon malignancy of the renal pelvis [ 5 ].…”

“…Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) originating in the renal pelvis is an infrequent form of malignancy, comprising less than 1% of all kidney tumors [ 1 ]. These carcinomas can be associated with chronic renal calculi, leading to squamous metaplasia and eventually squamous cell carcinoma [ 2 , 3 ].…”

Squamous cell carcinoma, originating in the renal pelvis, is an infrequent form of kidney malignancy. The occurrence rate remains below 1% for all neoplasms in this specific area. Most of these carcinomas are moderately or poorly differentiated, and diagnosis typically occurs at an advanced stage. Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis is an uncommon form of severe chronic infection that affects the parenchyma of native kidneys. We present the case of a 34-year-old male with a history of end-stage renal disease secondary to recurrent pyelonephritis, which was incidentally diagnosed as renal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC).
