A 67-year-old male had been maintained on hemodialysis for 13 years because of chronic renal failure secondary to diabetes mellitus. The patient was referred to our hospital with sudden right flank pain. Computed tomography revealed multiple cysts in both kidneys and a right massive perirenal hematoma. Although there was no definite evidence of a renal tumor, a right nephretomy was performed. Histological study revealed acquired cystic disease of the kidney (ACDK) with a hematoma containing papillary renal cell carcinoma. He has been free of recurrence for 2 months. To our knowledge, this case is the fourth report of renal cell carcinoma in ACDK manifested by spontaneous rupture in the Japanese literature.

The growing sophistication of tumor molecular profiling has helped to slowly transition oncologic care toward a more personalized approach in different tumor types, including in bladder cancer. The National Comprehensive Cancer Network recommends that all patients with stage IVA and stage IVB urothelial carcinoma have molecular analysis that integrates at least testing to help facilitate the selection of future therapeutic options. Sequencing of tumor-derived tissue is the mainstay to obtain this genomic testing, but as in other cancers, there has been extensive research into the integration of liquid biopsies in longitudinal management.

Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a class 1 carcinogen and mycotoxin known to contribute to the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), growth impairment, altered immune system modulation, and malnutrition. AFB1 is synthesized by Aspergillus flavus and is known to widely contaminate foodstuffs, particularly maize, wheat, and groundnuts. The mechanism in which AFB1 causes genetic mutations has been well studied, however its metabolomic effects remained largely unknown.
