Abstract
Renal oncocytoma is a benign renal neoplasm which has mostly been reported in adults. Occurrence in children is infrequent. To date, there are only six pediatric cases of renal oncocytoma reported previously. Herein, we report a 13-year-old girl presented with hematuria for a week. Abdominal computed tomography showed a well-defined heterogeneous solid mass with a stellate central scar in the left kidney. The patient underwent a nephron sparing surgery. Histopathological and immunohistochemical findings confirmed the diagnosis of renal oncocytoma. Though uncommon, renal oncocytoma should be considered as the differential diagnosis of renal tumor in children. In addition, intranuclear inclusions were firstly described in this pediatric patient with unclear significance, which need a large cohort to summarize and analyze.
期刊介绍:
The journal will cover studies related to pathology including morbid anatomy, surgical pathology, clinical pathology, diagnostic cytopathology including gynecologic cytology and aspiration cytology, hematology including immuno-hematology and medical microbiology. The journal gives preference to clinically oriented studies over experimental and animal studies. The Journal would publish peer-reviewed original research papers, case reports, systematic reviews, meta-analysis, letters to the editor and brief communications. Review articles on current topics usually are invited by the editor.
