Abstract:
Primary renal carcinoid is a rare tumor, with only 39 cases reported. These tumors have historically been managed with either open partial nephrectomy or open radical nephrectomy. We describe a patient with a primary renal carcinoid tumor successfully treated with laparoscopic partial nephrectomy. To our knowledge, this is the first such case reported.
