Source abstract
Renal Cell Carcinoma is rare in the pediatric population, making up only 2%-6% of all pediatric renal tumors. Literature on pediatric Chromophobe Renal Cell Carcinoma (chRCC) is exceptionally limited. In this report, we describe the case of a 12-year-old patient with Neurofibromatosis Type 1 (NF1), incidentally found to have a kidney lesion with pathology revealing chRCC. Treatment included open partial nephrectomy with lymph node dissection and current follow-up is nearly 1 year. To our knowledge, this is the first case of chRCC in the setting of NF1.
