    Summary

    This review covers two renal adenocarcinoma cases. One presented as an unsuspected hypernephroma on IVP, while the other involved spontaneous subcapsular renal hemorrhage.

    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Nephrology
    • Oncology

    Background:

    • Renal adenocarcinoma, also known as hypernephroma, can present with varied clinical and imaging findings.
    • Early and accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective patient management.

    Observation:

    • Case 1: A hypernephroma was incidentally discovered during an intravenous pyelogram (IVP) performed for ureteral colic, revealing a distorted renal collecting system and contrast extravasation.
    • Case 2: This report details a spontaneous subcapsular renal hemorrhage associated with an underlying hypernephroma.

    Findings:

    • The varied presentations highlight the importance of considering renal adenocarcinoma in the differential diagnosis of diverse renal pathologies.
    • Imaging findings, such as collecting system distortion and spontaneous hemorrhage, can be indicative of renal masses.

    Implications:

    • These cases underscore the need for thorough diagnostic evaluation in patients with unexplained renal symptoms or findings.
    • Recognizing these diverse presentations aids clinicians in timely diagnosis and treatment of renal adenocarcinoma.
