Abstract:
Papillarrenal cell carcinoma is a histological variant that may be cystic in appearance. This variety has been termed cystadenocarcinoma to distinguish it from a renal cell carcinoma that has been rendered cystic through necrosis and hemorrhage. Herein we report a case of cystadenocarcinoma of the kidney, which was positive in cytology and confirmed by surgical exploration.
