Abstract EN

We report two rare cases of Bellini duct carcinoma, a rare variant of renal cell carcinoma.

Case 1: The patient, a 73-year-old female, was admitted to the hospital for macroscopic hematuria and right flank pain.

She was diagnosed to have a stage IV Bellini duct carcinoma.

There was a progression of the disease despite chemotherapy.

She died 21 months later.

Case 2: The patient, an 81-year-old male, was admitted to the hospital for generalized fatigue, weight loss and left flank pain.

He was diagnosed to have a stage IV Bellini duct carcinoma.

The patient was treated with chemotherapy; he died six months later.

We report the clinicopathological features of two cases of Bellini duct carcinoma in order to contribute to the related literature of this rare disease.
