Böbreğin skuamöz hücreli karsinom patolojik tanısı literatür-de nadiren yer alır. Hastalık agresif tabiatlı, beş yıllık yaşam %10'dan az ve prognoz kötüdür. Yetmiş dört yaşında erkek hasta karın ağrısı ve kilo kaybı şikayetleri ile başvurdu. Sağ nefrektomi yapıldı. Patoloji raporu orta derece diferansiye skuamöz hücreli böbrek karsinomu varlığını gösterdi. Pozitron emisyon tomografi görüntülerinde kalıntı hastalık ve metastatik lenfadenopatiler izlendi. Adjuvan kemoterapi ve radyoterapi uygulandı ancak hastalık ilerledi ve patolojik tanıdan altı ay sonra hasta kaybedildi. Primer skuamöz hüc-reli karsinom agresif bir tümördür ve böbrek taşı ile güçlü bir ilişkisi vardır. Tümörün erken tespiti için böbrek taşı ve nonfonksiyone böbreği olan hastalar, yeni görüntüleme teknikleri ile incelenmeli ve daha iyi sonuçlar için cerrahi sonrası adjuvan kemoterapi-radyoterapi kombinasyonları ile agresif tedaviler uygulanmalıdır.Anahtar sözcükler: Kemoterapi; yoğunluk ayarlı radyoterapi; radyoterapi; böbrek skuamöz hücreli karsinomu.Pathologic diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the kidney is rarely reported in the literature. The disease is aggressive in nature and the prognosis is dismal with a 5-year survival rate of less than %10. A 74-year-old man admitted with abdominal pain and weight loss. Right nephrectomy was performed. Pathology report delineated moderately differentiated SCC of the kidney. Positron emission tomography demonstrated residual mass and metastatic lymph nodes. Adjuvant treatments with chemotherapy and radiotherapy were applied but the disease was progressed and the patient was dead six months after pathologic diagnosis. Primary SCC is an aggressive tumor and these tumors are strongly associated with renal stones, the patients with renal stones and non-functioning kidney should be carefully examined with newer imaging modalities for early detection of the tumor, and warrants aggressive treatment with surgery followed by adjuvant aggressive combination chemotherapy-radiotherapy that may provide a better outcome.

“…Squamous cell carcinomas have been associated with antecedent calculi or chronic infection. 5 In Japan, the number of deaths as a result of renal pelvic tumors went from 1281 in 2002 to 1200 in 2006 and 1558 in 2010. Similarly, the number of deaths as a result of a ureteral tumor also showed an increasing trend with 1055 in 2006 and 1593 in 2010, compared with 852 in 2002.…”

The epithelium lining is defined as the mucosal surfaces of the renal collecting tubules, calyces and pelvis, as well as the ureter, bladder and urethra. The term "urothelium" is used to refer to these surfaces. Upper tract urothelial carcinoma is a rare subset of urothelial cancers with a poor prognosis. Urinary bladder cancer is the most common malignancy involving the urinary system. Upper tract urothelial carcinoma is more common in men than in women, with a male-to-female ratio of 2:1. The incidence of urinary bladder cancer is also higher in men. Cigarette smoking and occupational exposure are the main upper tract urothelial carcinoma and urinary bladder cancer risk factors, while other factors are more specific to the carcinogenesis of upper tract urothelial carcinoma (i.e. Balkan endemic nephropathy, Chinese herb nephropathy). In Egypt until recent years, urinary bladder cancer was the most frequently diagnosed cancer due to Schistosoma haematobium. Substantial knowledge exists regarding the causes of upper tract urothelial carcinoma and urinary bladder cancer, and epidemiological studies have identified various chemical carcinogens that are believed to be responsible for most cases of urothelial carcinoma. In the era of precision medicine, genetic effects might play a direct role in the initiation and progression of urothelial carcinoma.

“…2 However, the present histologic and radiologic features of left renal pelvis tumor, including the tumor growth pattern, chronic urothelial inflammatory change, and presence of urinary caliculus inside the renal pelvic tumor, still suggested the probable etiology of primary renal pelvic squamous cell carcinoma. [3][4][5] The current case presents squamous cell carcinomas in 2 visceral organs simultaneously. However, the renal pelvic tumor in the current case can be a primary or metastatic tumor, although the incidences of both the circumstances are believed to be rare.…”

A 55-year-old man was incidentally diagnosed with a superficial squamous cell carcinoma of esophagus. However, the systemic survey with FDG PET/CT revealed a picture of more advanced disease because of the regional lymph node metastases and a suspected distal metastasis in the left renal pelvis, which was somewhat strange for a small superficial esophageal cancer. Subsequently, the renal pelvic lesion was confirmed as squamous cell carcinoma. However, a primary tumor rather than metastasis in the renal pelvis was considered according to the histologic characteristics and radiologic findings.
