    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Uropathology

    Background:

    • Renal oncocytomas are generally considered benign kidney tumors.
    • Metastases from renal oncocytomas are exceptionally rare, particularly to distant lymph nodes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report on five cases of renal oncocytomas.
    • To highlight an unusual case of malignant behavior with lymph node metastasis.

    Main Methods:

    • Case series review.
    • Histopathological examination of renal tumors and lymph nodes.

    Main Results:

    • Five cases of renal oncocytoma were identified.
    • One case demonstrated malignant behavior with regional and distant lymph node metastases.

    Conclusions:

    • While typically benign, renal oncocytomas can rarely exhibit malignant potential.
    • The possibility of metastasis, though rare, warrants consideration in the management of renal oncocytomas.
