Clinical Presentation and Treatment Outcomes of Renal Medullary Angiitis in Antineutrophil Cytoplasmic Antibody-Associated Vasculitis: A Single-Center Case Series.

Introduction: Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis (AAV) with renal involvement primarily affects the renal cortex and presents with key histopathologic findings of a pauci-immune necrotizing and crescentic glomerulonephritis. Infrequently reported and poorly characterized is renal medullary angiitis (RMA), a pathologic variant of AAV primarily involving the renal medulla. This study seeks to describe the presentation and treatment outcomes of RMA.

A rare case of Ewing's sarcoma of the kidney.

We report the case of a 15-year-old girl presenting with distended abdomen, left flank pain, and a history of weight loss. Computed tomography showed a large tumor involving the left kidney that was initially diagnosed as renal cell carcinoma. She underwent exploratory open laparotomy and left radical nephrectomy followed by chemotherapy and showed good response.
