Abstract EN
Sporadic, synchronous, bilateral, or unilateral Renal Cell Carcinomas constitute a rare clinical entity.
We report the case of a 68-year-old male patient who presented in our department due to incidentally discovered multiple, bilateral renal tumors.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging demonstrated cT1b renal tumors at the lower pole of each kidney and a cT1a renal tumor at the upper pole of the right kidney.
The patient underwent transperitoneal, laparoscopic left partial nephrectomy with renal artery occlusion, histology revealed high-grade, pT1b, clear-cell renal cell carcinoma; however we observed decline of patient’s estimated glomerular filtration rate postoperatively.
Forty days postoperatively, he underwent open partial nephrectomy for the right sided tumors with manual compression of the renal parenchyma and no use of ischemia.
Histology revealed high-grade, pT1a, clear-cell renal cell carcinoma at the upper pole of the right kidney and low-grade, pT1b, clear-cell renal cell carcinoma at the lower pole of the right kidney.
There was no additional decline in the serum creatinine value postoperatively.
The patient avoided permanent or temporary dialysis and 6 months postoperatively he demonstrated no recurrence on imaging and his renal function remained stable.
