Abstract

We report a case of renal oncocytoma which was found incidentally during the nephroureterectomy for renal pelvis carcinoma. The coexistence of two tumors on the kidney with absolutely different origin one from the other is extremely rare and interesting. Herein we discuss the clinical, morphological, histological, ultrastructural and angiographical characteristics of oncocytoma.
