Popis: Malignant rhabdoid tumor of the kidney (MRTK) is a rare aggressive pediatric renal tumor which can be diagnosed via fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology and core biopsy. The diagnosis of MRTK is challenging, and requires morphologic, immunohistochemical and clinical correlation to distinguish it from other entities. The differential diagnosis includes Wilms tumor, desmoplastic small round cell tumor, rhabdomyosarcoma, synovial sarcoma, renal medullary carcinoma, and epithelioid sarcoma. Here we describe a case of MRTK diagnosed on renal cytology and core biopsy with immunohistochemistry and follow by nephrectomy with gross and morphologic findings.
