Introduction: Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma, a distinct subtype of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with characteristic light microscopic, histochemical, and ultrastructural features, typically has a favorable clinical course.
Presentation Of Case: A 45-year-old femele presented with abdominal pain. A physical examination found a palpable mass in the left upper quadrant of the abdomen. A CT scan of the abdomen showed a heterogeneously enhancing mass, with necrosis and calcifications contents betwen the liver and the right kidney. she underwent surgical resection. Partial nephrectomy was performed. Pathological diagnosis was Chromophobe renal cell carcinoma.
Discussion And Conclusion: Chromophobe RCC is a rare variety of kidney neoplasm that has recently been better characterized from a molecular and genetic perspective. Overall, it is considered to have a better prognosis, and is associated with earlier stage tumors and longer overall survival compared with clear cell RCC.

A 54-year-old man who had been on the kidney donor register for 32 years received a kidney from a 9-year-old boy who had died of fulminant myocarditis. The post-operative course was poor, and hemodialysis was still needed after surgery. A kidney biopsy one hour after surgery showed a neutrophil-predominant inflammatory cell infiltrate localized to the peritubular capillaries (PTC) and acute tubular necrosis of the proximal tubule.

Objectives: To evaluate the at-risk organs that require protection during percutaneous cryoablation (PCA) of renal tumours and the correlation with patient and target lesion characteristics, type of protective measure used and postoperative outcomes.
Materials And Methods: Single-centre retrospective review of patients with renal tumours who underwent PCA between 2008 and 2020. Final analysis included 374 tumours.

Background: Bilateral synchronous renal masses (BSRMs) are a rare finding, and the optimal treatment strategy remains undetermined. This study depicts the management of BSRM at eight European high-volume centers.
Methods: This is a retrospective analysis of prospective institutional databases collecting all patients presenting with clinical T1-2 N0 M0 BSRMs between 1993 and 2020 at 8 tertiary referral high-volume centers for renal cancer treatment in Europe.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of the most common malignancies in the urinary system, and clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common subtype. MYBL2 has been reported to be overexpressed in various tumors and associated with poor prognosis in patients, but its biological role in ccRCC remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the mRNA and protein expression levels of MYBL2 in ccRCC samples and evaluated the prognostic value of MYBL2 using TCGA dataset.
