    Area of Science:

    • Nephrology
    • Oncology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Renal oncocytomas are rare, benign kidney tumors.
    • Distinguishing them from renal cell carcinoma is crucial for patient management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To describe seven cases of renal oncocytomas.
    • To review the literature and discuss differential diagnosis from renal cell carcinoma.

    Main Methods:

    • Case review of surgical and autopsy materials.
    • Reclassification of previously diagnosed renal cell carcinomas.
    • Histopathological and radiological analysis for differential diagnosis.

    Main Results:

    • Seven male patients with renal oncocytomas, mean age 69 years.
    • Reported the smallest (0.3 cm) and largest (2350 g) renal oncocytomas.
    • Two cases occurred in polycystic kidneys; all cases had benign clinical courses.

    Conclusions:

    • Renal oncocytomas can present with extreme size variations.
    • Accurate differentiation from renal cell carcinoma is essential using multimodal diagnostic approaches.
