Abstract
Medullary sponge kidney (MSK) is an uncommon kidney malformation, characterized by cystic dilatation of the precalyceal papillary collecting ducts. Urography and computed tomography scan represent the gold standard to detect this congenital disorder. A clear diagnosis is not always feasible, especially in the presence of a concomitant renal mass, which in turn can be difficult to detect in MSK patients. When conventional imaging is inconclusive, a renal biopsy can be considered in doubtful cases. Here, we report a unique case of a Bellini duct carcinoma in a patient with MSK and we review the literature on this complex condition.
期刊介绍：
Clinical Genitourinary Cancer is a peer-reviewed journal that publishes original articles describing various aspects of clinical and translational research in genitourinary cancers. Clinical Genitourinary Cancer is devoted to articles on detection, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of genitourinary cancers. The main emphasis is on recent scientific developments in all areas related to genitourinary malignancies. Specific areas of interest include clinical research and mechanistic approaches; drug sensitivity and resistance; gene and antisense therapy; pathology, markers, and prognostic indicators; chemoprevention strategies; multimodality therapy; and integration of various approaches.
