This case report details a rare malignant cystic nephroma found incidentally in an adult male. This discovery highlights the importance of investigating unusual renal masses.

Area of Science:

Nephrology
Oncology
Pathology

Background:

Malignant cystic nephroma is an exceptionally rare renal tumor.
Typically, cystic nephromas are benign, making malignant variants noteworthy.

Observation:

A 60-year-old male presented with an incidentally detected right perirenal mass.
MRI revealed a large, heterogeneous, encapsulated perinephric mass.

Findings:

Radical nephrectomy and retroperitoneal node dissection were performed.
Histopathological analysis confirmed the diagnosis of malignant cystic nephroma.

Implications:

This case represents the first reported instance of malignant cystic nephroma in an adult.
Further research into the characteristics and management of this rare entity is warranted.
