Abstract
Hereditary leiomyomatosis is a genetic disorder that follows an autosomal dominant pattern of inheritance. Along with a variety of leiomyomas, affected individuals are predisposed to developing an aggressive form of type 2 papillary renal malignancy known as Hereditary Leiomyomatosis Associated Renal Cell Carcinoma (HLRCC) that can occur in both the tubulo-papillary and collecting-duct systems. We present a rare case of HLRCC with components of urothelial carcinoma. The patient was treated with cisplatin-based neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by left radical nephroureterectomy to achieve complete remission of disease.
