J Chin Med Assoc. 2007 Sep;70(9):403-5. doi: 10.1016/S1726-4901(08)70029-7.

Abstract

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is very rare. Only 11 cases of bilateral RCC in ADPKD have been reported since 1954. Herein, we present a 58-year-old male who received laparoscopic bilateral radical nephrectomy for bilateral RCC with different cell variants in ADPKD and end-stage renal disease under regular hemodialysis.
