Özet

This case report aimed to review the literature on translocation renal cell carcinoma (tRCC), which is a rare form of kidney cancer and was the initial diagnosis of a recently treated patient. We report our findings in a 30-year-old female who underwent robot-assisted radical nephrectomy for an incidental right renal mass, which was reported as unclassified RCC at final pathologic evaluation after eliminating tRCC as differential diagnosis, and discuss the main aspects of tRCC based on current literature.
