Abstract:To investigate the clinicopathological features of neuroendocrine carcinoma of the kidney (NECK). Methods: The clinicopathological data of 10 patients NECK treated from January 2000 to December 2015 were analyzed retrospectively, and clinical manifestations, characteristics of immunohistochemistry, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis were summarized. Results: The mean age of all patients at diagnosis was 41 years-old (22-70 years), including 2 males and 8 females. The tumor of 2 patients was localized in the left side, and that of the rest in the right side. The average maximum diameter of tumors was 7.35 cm. The TNM stage of 2 patients was T1N0M0, 3 T2N0M0, 4 T3N0M0 and one T3N1M0. All of the 10 patients received nephrectomy successfully. The mean follow-up period was 21.2 months with one patient lost to follow-up. Two patients were alive with metastasis in liver or lung. Two patients died 4 months after surgery. Conclusions: NECK is a rare histological type of renal cell carcinoma. Pathological examination is the gold standard for the diagnosis of NECK. The treatments of NECK include surgery, chemotherapy and targeted therapy. Renal carcinoid tumors are indolent and associated with prolonged survival, while the other types of NECK are aggressive tumors with relatively short overall survival.
