Simultaneous diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma with pelvic malignancies is rare but a well-documented phenomenon. It is not uncommon to have incidental renal masses on imaging done for investigating other tumors. There are no established guidelines for the treatment of patients with dual malignancies. The management of such patients is challenging...

... abdomen and pelvis with intravenous contrast was performed which revealed enhancing lesion in cervix which is extending into the posterior parametria. Another positive finding was exophytic heterogeneous lesion arising from lower pole of left kidney, which was reported as primary renal neoplasm with abdominal pelvic lymphadenopathy ( Figure 3). The patient was referred to a urologist and the case was discussed in multidisciplinary tumor board and the consensus was made to manage the cervical cancer first due to its natural history followed by partial nephrectomy for left renal mass. ...

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) usually presents clinically in the advanced stage including bone metastasis. However metastatic RCC without evidence of a primary tumor in the kidney is extremely rare. We herein report a case of a 70-year-old male initially evaluated for bone lesion and diagnosed with biopsy-proven metastatic clear cell RCC without a ren...
Introduction
Recent guidelines do not recommend routine screening of vesicoureteral reflux after a first febrile urinary tract infection in children without abnormal findings on ultrasound or atypical/recurrent urinary tract infection. Currently, there are no clear ultrasonographic parameters for detecting abnormalities in renal size, especially in...
Background:
Wilms' tumor, nephroblastoma, is an extremely uncommon kidney tumor of adulthood. We reported a woman with a huge kidney mass diagnosed with nephroblastoma.
Case presentation:
A 39-year-old female was assessed due to right flank pain. CT scan revealed a mass measuring 128×100 mms involving the upper portion of the right kidney. The p...

Background In India, renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most frequent kidney cancer with an increasing tendency, whereas cervical cancer is the second most common disease among women. Synchronicity of RCC with other malignancies is not uncommon, but with the cervical cancer is rare. Case description A 64-year-old, postmenopausal female, presented with complaint of bleeding per vagina and was diagnosed with carcinoma cervix and later on metastatic work-up also diagnosed with right RCC. After multidisciplinary discussion, patient planned for management for cervix then followed by renal lesion. Patient received radical external beam radiotherapy followed by brachytherapy for carcinoma cervix and underwent nephrectomy for right RCC. Conclusion Synchronous cases of cervical cancer and renal cell carcinoma are very rare. Advancement in diagnostic protocol makes these kind of cases common and multidisciplinary team decisions are required for their management.
