Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Cystic partially differentiated nephroblastoma is a multilocular cystic variant of Wilms tumor that always presents in children. However, we encountered an elderly patient with cystic partially differentiated nephroblastoma. Therefore, we report it. CASE PRESENTATION: A 74-year-old male presented with a left renal tumor detected with ultrasonography. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a 4 cm multilocular cystic tumor with septa, which suggested multilocular cystic renal cell carcinoma. Therefore, we performed a radical nephrectomy. The definitive diagnosis of cystic partially differentiated nephroblastoma was made with histopathological findings. After the surgical resection, no recurrence has occurred in the past 13 years. CONCLUSION: Cystic partially differentiated nephroblastoma can develop in adults, regardless of age. Furthermore, surgical resection can be used as an established treatment option in adult cystic partially differentiated nephroblastoma cases.
