A 59-year-old male was admitted to our clinic for further examination of the calcified renal cyst discovered incidentally on medical workup elsewhere. CT showed a left renal cyst associated with calcification. Ultrasound-guided puncture of the renal cyst was not successful because of thickness of the cystic wall. Renal angiography showed hypervascularity of the cystic wall. Association of renal cell carcinoma could not be ruled out, therefore the exploration was performed. Histological examination revealed benign renal cyst with calcification. A 27-year-old male presented with the chief complaint of left flank pain. Following examinations by US, CT and MRI, a renal cyst associated with renal cell carcinoma was highly suspected. Subsequent exploration revealed cluster of cysts with a yellowish lesion a few mm in diameter. Frozen section revealed no malignancy, and cystic fluid was not hemorrhagic. Therefore as many cystic walls as possible were removed without nephrectomy. Histological examination of the permanent specimen revealed renal cell carcinoma. Renal cyst associated with renal cell carcinoma was regarded as rare clinical entity, but such cases are reported in increasing number in recent years. We report such cases and review the pertinent literature in this paper.
