Three years revealed no pain at the surgery site or hematuria. Abdominal MRI revealed no recidive mass. This case report comprehensively described an autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease that coexists with RCC. malignant lesions were found in ADPKD cases without any clinical symptoms of malignancy.
