Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Nephrology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Collecting duct (Bellini) carcinoma is an uncommon renal malignancy.
  • It shares clinical and epidemiological similarities with clear cell adenocarcinoma.
  • Distinct embryological, pathological, immunohistochemical, and cytogenetic characteristics define this tumor.

Observation:

  • A 36-year-old male presented with hematuria and clot retention.
  • A left renal mass was identified, suspected to be renal carcinoma.
  • The patient underwent radical nephrectomy with lymphadenectomy and postoperative radiotherapy.

Findings:

  • Pathological examination confirmed collecting duct (Bellini) carcinoma.
  • The patient received chemotherapy and palliative radiotherapy.

  • The patient died 34 months post-surgery.
  • Implications:

    • Collecting duct (Bellini) carcinoma, though rare, requires specific diagnostic and therapeutic considerations.
    • Radical nephrectomy is the primary treatment modality.
    • The prognosis is generally poor due to aggressive behavior and late-stage diagnosis.
