Abstract
17 - Multiple and bilateral sporadic renal cell carcinomas: A surgical challenge
Highlights
Sporadic, synchronous, bilateral, or unilateral Renal Cell Carcinomas (RCCs) constitute a rare clinical entity and a stressful challenge for the surgeon [1–5]
We report the case of a 68year-old male patient who presented in our department due to incidentally discovered multiple, bilateral renal tumors
Preoperative Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) demonstrated the followings: (1) a 6.2x6.3 cm in size, solid mass at the lower pole of the right kidney, (2) a 2.4 cm solid mass at the upper pole of the right kidney, and (3) a 5.4x4.5 cm in size, solid mass at the lower pole of the left kidney (Figure 1)
Summary
Synchronous, bilateral, or unilateral Renal Cell Carcinomas (RCCs) constitute a rare clinical entity and a stressful challenge for the surgeon [1–5]. A single approach cannot be proposed as every case is almost unique [2]. Our aim is to present the management of an interesting case of sporadic, synchronous, bilateral, and multifocal RCC
