We present a case of an ectopic renal tumor in a 61-year-old morbidly obese man with a pelvic kidney found after presenting with hematuria and irritative voiding symptoms. The mass, along with the ectopic kidney and ureter, was radically resected through an open operation that involved removing both them and the renal vessels from the underlying iliac vessels. Pathological analysis demonstrated an 8.3 cm papillary renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with oncocytic features, Fuhrman nuclear grade 3, with angiolymphatic invasion and negative margins. The patient has been recurrence-free for over four years since tumor resection. 1. Introduction urinary tract symptoms. The remainder of the review of systems was unremarkable.

The tumor and kidney were fibrotically adhered to the left common iliac artery, and dissection was done in the midst of confirming palpable lower extremity pulses before and after this stage in the operation. The left renal artery and vein were transected with good hemostasis. The ureter was then clipped distally to the level of the intramural ureter, transected and removed from the pelvis along with the remainder of the specimen (Figure 4)prior to irrigation and layered closure of the peritoneum and abdominal wall. There were no intraoperative complications and the patient tolerated the procedure well.

Improper migration of the kidney and ipsilateral ureter can result from uterine bud maldevelopment, defective metanephric tissue that fails to induce ascent, genetic abnormalities, and maternal disease or teratogenesis. Ectopic kidney disease can be associated with anomalies of the vertebral column, lower gastrointestinal tract, genital tract, or spinal cord and meninges. Genital abnormalities are the most prominent. For women, these include bicornuate or unicornuate uterus, rudimentary or absent uterus and vagina, and duplication of the vagina. For men, undescended testes, urethral duplication, and hypospadias can occur [1]. The pattern of the renal vascular network is dependent on the position of the ectopic kidney and is completely anomalous. More inferiorly situated ectopic kidneys may be supplied by one or two main renal arteries arising from the distal aorta, aortic bifurcation, and the common or external iliac arteries. The inferior mesenteric arteries can also provide blood supply to these kidneys [1].

A number of rarer histologic subtypes exists, including multilocular cystic RCC, collecting duct carcinoma, muci- nous tubular and spindle cell carcinoma, neuroblastoma- associated RCC, and Xp 11.2 translocation-TFE3 carcinoma, with each making up <1% of RCC [5]. Radiographically, papillary RCC’s typically appear hypovascular and homo- geneous with limited contrast enhancement on contrast- enhanced CT, although larger tumors may show hetero- geneity due to necrosis, hemorrhage, and calcification [1, 5].
