Is tubulocystic renal cell carcinoma an entity that is immunohistochemically and genetically distinct from papillary renal cell carcinoma?
Pure tubulocystic renal cell carcinoma is an indolent tumour with a good prognosis. Our data support the distinction of this neoplasm as a separate entity.
The 8.5-mm abutment lends to decreased complications postoperatively, including infection, skin overgrowth, and the need for revision surgery.
