conclusions the patient underwent surgery applying a midline incision. the left kidney showed a lump pattern embedded in lower pole of the right kidney. left sided nephrectomy was performed while temporary right renal artery was clamped temporarily. histopathological evaluation revealed clear cell carcinoma with severe nuclear atypia (fuhrman grade 4/4). however, local recurrence was not detect...

metastatic   tumors in the nose and paranasal sinuses are infrequent. the origin of this metastatic tumors are often renal cell carcinoma. we present one case of metastatic renal cell carcinoma   to the nose and paranasal sinuses ,4 years after initial nephrectomy and diagnosis of stage t1n0m0 clear cell carcinoma. the patient complained of nasal obstruction and recurrent epistaxis   who was tr...

introduction: metastatic lesions of the oral cavity are extremely rare, accounting for approximately 1% of all malignant oral tumors. the most common primary sources of metastatic tumors in the oral region are, from the most to the least common, the breast, lung, kidney, bone, and colon. renal cell carcinoma accounts for nearly 3% of all adult malignancies. it usually metastasizes to the lungs,...

metastatic lesions represent 1-8% of all malignant tumors of the mouth and jaws, which are regarded as rare sites of metastases from different primary tumors. metastases in mouth soft tissue are also rare, and within these it is on the gums where they more frequently occur. primary tumors which metastasize to the mouth are most commonly: lung, breast, and kidney. clear cell carcinoma is the mos...

background and aims: p504s (amacr) is a mitochondrial enzyme expressed in renal cell carcinoma. some of immunohistochemical markers in renal cell tumors are independent prognostic factor and show relation with histologic grading. amacr expression increases with higher histological grading in different tumors; however, in rcc it is not obvious. in this study, we tried to investigate if any relat...

the paranasal sinuses are known to be a rare location for metastasis. renal cell carcinoma (rcc) is the most frequent primary tumor to metastasize to the sinonasal region, followed by lung and breast cancer. in particular, clear cell type rcc, which represents approximately 85% of rccs, is characterized by early metastasis, and it sometimes spreads to unusual sites (1, 2). metastatic tumors in ...

objective(s): the ability to measure cellular proliferation non-invasively in renal cell carcinoma may allow prediction of tumour aggressiveness and response to therapy. the aim of this study was to evaluate the uptake of 18ffluorothymidine (flt) pet in renal cell carcinoma (rcc), and to compare this to 18f-fluorodeoxyglucose (fdg), and to an immunohistochemical measure of cellular proliferatio...

background and objectives: rcc is one of the most common genitourinary cancers. accurate prediction of prognosis would be valuable for adjuvant trial design, counseling and effectively scheduling follow up visits. p53 is a tumor suppressor gene that expresses a protein that involved in both cell-cycle arrests after dna damage and apoptosis. presence of mutated p53 protein in tumors has been rel...
