Collecting duct carcinoma, a rare and aggressive kidney cancer, typically occurs in the medullary region. This case highlights a rare instance of this renal tumor found in the kidney cortex.

Area of Science:

Nephrology
Oncology
Pathology

Background:

Collecting duct carcinoma (CDC) is an uncommon and aggressive renal tumor originating from the distal tubules.
CDCs often present in younger patients at advanced stages, correlating with a poor prognosis.

Observation:

This report details a unique case of CDC with specific histologic and immunohistochemical features.
The tumor was notably located in the renal cortex, an atypical location for this cancer.

Findings:

Histologically, the tumor exhibited duct-like and papillary architecture within a desmoplastic stroma.
Immunohistochemical analysis provided further characterization of this rare cortical CDC presentation.

Implications:

This case expands the understanding of CDC's diverse presentations and locations.

Recognizing cortical CDC is crucial for accurate diagnosis and appropriate patient management.
