Abstract

This case report describes a rare instance of extrarenal clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) in a 48-year-old woman who presented with a loss of consciousness. Abdominal CT revealed a 24 × 31 mm mass in the left adrenal region, with no kidney involvement. The mass was surgically excised, and histopathological examination confirmed the diagnosis of ccRCC. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed positive markers, including CA9, CD10, PAX-8, and vimentin. The patient did not undergo adjuvant therapy, and a 6-month follow-up showed no signs of recurrence or metastasis. This case emphasizes the importance of considering extrarenal ccRCC in differential diagnoses of adrenal masses.

肾上腺区域的肾外肾细胞癌：病例报告。

本病例报告描述了一例罕见的肾外透明细胞肾细胞癌（ccRCC）病例，患者 48 岁，因意识丧失而就诊。腹部 CT 显示左肾上腺区域有一个 24 × 31 毫米的肿块，肾脏未受累。手术切除了肿块，组织病理学检查确诊为 ccRCC。免疫组化分析显示，CA9、CD10、PAX-8 和波形蛋白等标记物呈阳性。患者没有接受辅助治疗，6 个月的随访显示没有复发或转移迹象。该病例强调了在鉴别诊断肾上腺肿块时考虑肾外ccRCC的重要性。

期刊介绍： Evidence of surgical interventions go back to prehistoric times. Since then, the field of surgery has developed into a complex array of specialties and procedures, particularly with the advent of microsurgery, lasers and minimally invasive techniques. The advanced skills now required from surgeons has led to ever increasing specialization, though these still share important fundamental principles. Frontiers in Surgery is the umbrella journal representing the publication interests of all surgical specialties. It is divided into several “Specialty Sections” listed below. All these sections have their own Specialty Chief Editor, Editorial Board and homepage, but all articles carry the citation Frontiers in Surgery. Frontiers in Surgery calls upon medical professionals and scientists from all surgical specialties to publish their experimental and clinical studies in this journal. By assembling all surgical specialties, which nonetheless retain their independence, under the common umbrella of Frontiers in Surgery, a powerful publication venue is created. Since there is often overlap and common ground between the different surgical specialties, assembly of all surgical disciplines into a single journal will foster a collaborative dialogue amongst the surgical community. This means that publications, which are also of interest to other surgical specialties, will reach a wider audience and have greater impact. The aim of this multidisciplinary journal is to create a discussion and knowledge platform of advances and research findings in surgical practice today to continuously improve clinical management of patients and foster innovation in this field.
