A rare case of renal gastrointestinal stromal tumor.
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) accounts for about 3% of adult cancers. RCC is the third most common cancer among the urogenital cancers, clear-cell RCC being the most common histological subtype. Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are the most common mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract and are derived from interstitial Cajal cells (ICCs). The ICCs in the urinary system were first shown in 2003 in a study by Solari et al. However, there is no publication of a GIST of renal origin yet. Here we report a case of renal GIST that has not previously been published in the literature.
