Clear cell renal cell carcinoma: atypical imaging presentation of Wunderlich syndrome

Résumé

Renal cell carcinomas (RCC) are primary malignant adenocarcinomas derived from the tubular epithelium. These encompass several distinct histological varieties, including clear cell, papillary, clear cell papillary, chromophobe renal cell, and other rare ones. The incidence of RCC is rising, largely attributable to the increased use of cross-sectional imaging and advances in imaging techniques. This case report describes an atypical imaging manifestation of RCC, histologically confirmed as a clear cell subtype, presenting atypically with Wunderlich syndrome.
