AI Article Synopsis
- A 51-year-old female underwent a right nephrectomy due to concerns over a tumor encasing her right kidney, as malignant lymphoma could not be ruled out.
- An immunohistological examination of the removed tissue confirmed the diagnosis as pseudolymphoma.
- This case is notable because pseudolymphoma in the urinary tract is rare, marking only the second reported instance of it occurring in the perirenal area.
Article Abstract
A right nephrectomy was performed on a 51 year-old female with a tumor surrounding the right kidney since the possibility of malignant lymphoma could not be excluded based on radiography or a needle biopsy. An immunohistological examination of the surgically-resected specimen confirmed a diagnosis of pseudolymphoma. A pseudolymphoma involving the urinary tract is rare, and this is only the second reported case of pseudolymphoma in the perirenal space.
