Abstract |
We report a case of chromophobe cell carcinoma in a 41-year-old woman who was admitted to our hospital because of right upper abdominal pain. We performed right radical nephrectomy under the diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma. The cut surface appearance of the tumor was homogeneous, grey beige and solid. This tumor was diagnosed as chromophobe cell renal carcinoma after microscopic and immunohistochemical studies. We report our case with reference to the relevant literature.
