Abstract:
Objective To discuss the clinical manifestation and pathology of papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC).Methods From January 2007 to January 2012,the clinical and pathologic data of 25 patients (17 males and 8 females with average age of 54 years ranging from 24-76 years) with PRCC were retrospectively analyzed in combination with review of literature.The clinical stages of the tumor were as follows,Ⅰ in 16 cases,Ⅱ in 5 cases,Ⅲ in 4 cases.And the radiographic inspections of PRCC were compared with that of 100 randomly selected clear renal cell carcinoma (CRCC).Results All the PRCC cases had different imaging presentations compared with CRCC.CT attenuation of CRCC was higher than that of PRCC in corticomedullary,nephrographic and excretory phase (P＜0.05).Heterogeneous enhancement was most commonly seen in CRCC than PRCC (P＜0.05).There were 21 patients underwent radical nephrectomy,and 4 patients underwent laparoscopic nephron sparing surgery.The pTNM stages of the tumor were as follows,pT1N0M0 in 16 cases,pT2N0M0 in 5 cases,pT3aN0M0 in 2 cases,pT1N1M0 in 1 case,,pT2N1M0 in 1 case.Of these 25 patients,8 (32％) and 17 (68％) were diagnosed as type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ PRCC,respectively.All the 25 cases of patients were followed up from 6 to 60 months.One case died of metastasis,1 case died of cerebrovascular disease and the other 23 patients survived with tumor-free.Conclusions PRCC is a special type of RCC with low morbidity.Radiological examination can be used in the differential diagnosis of CRCC and PRCC before surgery.The prognosis after surgical treatment is good,but the adjuvant systemic treatment is to be study.
