Metastatic malignant tumor in native kidney with acquired cystic disease after renal transplantation.
Patients on long-term hemodialysis frequently develop Acquired Cystic Renal Disease (ACRD). When hematuria or flank pain occurs, the possibility of malignant renal tumors should be investigated. We present an ACRD patient who received a kidney transplant and developed malignancy in a native kidney, the first manifestation being bone metastases, and discuss the role of CT in evaluating these patients.
