Renal cell carcinoma not otherwise specified: A case report in Indonesia

Abstract

Renal cell carcinoma not otherwise specified (RCC NOS) is a very rare type of kidney cancer which used for renal tumors that do not fit into any of the well-recognized subtypes. We reported a case of RCC NOS of a 64-year-old male presenting an enlarging left flank mass. Abdominal CT showed a left kidney mass infiltrating to the adrenal, with pulmonary metastases. Cytoreductive nephrectomy and lymphadenectomy were performed and diagnosis of RCC NOS was confirmed through histopatological and immunohistochemistry examination.
