Popis: Cancer is the second most common cause of death in women of childbearing age. However, renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a rare tumor in this collective with an incidence far below 5/100,000 cases per year. Therefore, medical experience with respect to diagnostics and therapeutic management of newly diagnosed RCC in pregnant women is scarce and the number of published cases low. However, recent studies indicated that higher estrogen levels and multigravidity could be associated with a higher risk of RCC. The aim of this article is to summarize the clinical experience in treating pregnant women with renal cancer against the background of those cases published in the literature.
