A 67 year old male presented with left flank pain and microscopic hematuria. CT scan performed revealed a left UVJ calculus with mild hydronephrosis, along with a 2.5 cm enhancing mass in the lower pole of the left kidney. After the placement of left ureteral stent, subsequent MR revealed no hydronephrosis, but persistent complex cystic mass in the kidney. A partial nephrectomy was performed, and the photomicrographs are from the resected 2.5 cm, cystic and solid mass.

 Case 2 - Figure 1 Cystic areas in the tumor with papillary proliferations.

 Case 2 - Figure 2 Prominent papillary architecture. Note the clear cell cytology of the tumor.

 Case 2 - Figure 3 A solid area in the tumor showing closely packed tubular architecture. In addition to the clear cell cytology, the arrangement of nuclei away from basement membrane is prominantly present.

 Case 2 - Figure 4 A higher magnification image showing the characteristic linear arrangement of nuclei.

 Case 2 - Figure 5 This image illustrates the spectrum of morphologic features in this clear cell papillary RCC: tubular/acinar pattern with characteristically arranged nuclei, microcysts, solid sheet-like area composed of numerous mico- or "collapsed" acini, and smooth muscle metaplasia of the capsule with extension into the tumor.
