Abstract:Objective: To investiate the clinicopathologic features of mucinous tubular and spindle cell carcinoma (MTSCC) of the kidney, an extremely rare carcinoma. Methods: The clinical data about manifestations, diagnosis, surgical approaches and pathological features of 2 cases of MTSCC treated from January 2006 to February 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. The related literatures were reviewd. Results: Both of the patients in this study were female: one was 47 years old, and the other was 57. No clinical symptoms were found. The disease was not detected until B ultrasound tests were performed during health examination. The tumors were characterized with one single mass on one kidney with diameter around 4 cm. Imaging information showed that the tumors were short of blood supply. Both of the cases were treated by retroperitoneoscopic radical nephrectomy. Postoperative pathological examination showed that CK7 and CK19 were positive in both cases, CD10 positive in one case, and negative in one negative. The follow-up period was 6 years and 1 year respectively. No recurrence or metastasis was observed. Conclusions: MTSCC is a rare low-grade malignant renal epithelial carcinoma with a relatively good prognosis. MTSCC can be treated by radical nephrectomy and nephron-sparing surgery, and the latter is recommended if possible. Minimally invasive surgery is better than open surgery. Follow-up should be emphasized on because metastasis was reported in some cases with or without sarcomatoid change.
