Renal cell carcinoma diagnosed during pregnancy: a case report and literature review

Abstract: Diagnosing cancer during pregnancy is uncommon. Although pregnancies with concomitant malignancies have been reported, urological tumours are possibly the most rarely identified tumours during pregnancy. Renal cell carcinoma appears to be the most common urological malignancy during pregnancy. In this case report, we discuss successful management of a patient who was diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma during the antenatal period.

“…Some of the predisposing factors for RCC in pregnancy are elevated levels of estrogen and progesterone, polymorphism of the estrogen receptor gene, increment in body mass index (BMI) and increased risk of diabetes and hypertension. Given that the symptoms of RCC in pregnancy such as flank pain, hematuria, hypertension mimic other common pregnancy related disorders, the diagnosis of RCC can frequently be missed or delayed [ 8 , 9 ].…”

“…Among urological tumors, which are rarely identified during pregnancy, renal cell carcinoma is the most common tumor followed by angiomyolipoma. [3,4] Only very few cases of oncocytoma diagnosed during the antenatal period have been reported; hence, we report this case for its rarity.…”

“…Legfőbb rizikófaktorai az obesitas, a dohányzás és a hypertonia [36]. Potenciális rizikófaktornak tekinthető a terhességben mérhető emelkedett ösztrogén-, illetve progeszteronszint [37], elsősorban multiparáknál [38,39]. Legfőbb tünetei a fájdalom (50%), a haematuria (47%), a hypertonia (18%) és a klasszikus hármas tünet: haematuria, fájdalom, tapintható massza (26%) [40].…”
