Abstract EN

Horseshoe kidney (HSK) is the most common renal anomaly.

Reports of the incidence of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in HSK are conflicting.

Very few cases of isthmus-located RCC have been reported in the literature.

We report a unique case of an isthmus-located RCC.

Proper vascular and tumor imaging prior to surgery is key to successful tumor removal.
