| Popis: | Tubulocystic renal cell carcinoma is a rare cancer that was not defined as a distinct entity until the early 2000s. Due to the recency of its classification, it remains poorly understood and leaves much room for future research. This report looks at a unique case of this rare subtype of renal cancer. This specific case is unique due to both the demographics of the affected patient and the finding of bone metaplasia within the tumor. We believe this is the first ever reported incidence of this phenomenon. |
