Abstract
For the past few decades, a solid mass in the kidney with avid enhancement was considered renal cell carcinoma (RCC). With the advancement in radiological interventions, the understanding and treatment of a large number of tumours has changed. Oncocytomas are solid benign renal masses contributing 3-7% in all renal neoplasms. We report a case of a 32-year-old male who presented to our medicine OPD with abdominal pain and discomfort for about one month, later diagnosed with oncocytoma. We emphasize the importance of the typical imaging findings for the diagnosis and characterization of renal tumors.
