Papillary renal neoplasm with reverse polarity is a rare subtype of papillary renal cell tumors with unique morphology, specific molecular features and good prognosis. The article presents literature data and describes our own observation of a papillary kidney tumor with reverse nuclear polarity in a 73-year-old patient. The difficulties of preoperative diagnosis of a tumor are shown, histological and immunohistochemical criteria for diagnosis and differential diagnosis of this tumor with other kidney tumors are presented.
