title: [Renal cell carcinoma in a long-term hemodialysis patient: a case report of its interesting clinical course].
abstract: A 61-year-old man with a history of hemodialysis for 10 years, and complaining of fever and right flank pain was introduced to us with the suspicion of right renal tumor and admitted on May 19, 1984. Right radical nephrectomy was done and the histological diagnosis was renal cell carcinoma (clear cell type) with acquired cystic disease of the kidney (ACDK). On the 27th day after operation, spontaneous rupture of bladder, despite its lack in functioning was suspected and an emergency operation was done. The bladder wall was very thin and weak and it was lacerated about 5 cm. After this operation the blood pressure was unstable and the patient died on the 64th day after nephrectomy due to sepsis. In Japan, 9 cases (containing this case) of renal cell carcinoma associated with ACDK were reported. The mean age and the mean duration of dialysis were 37.4 years old and 6.7 years. The cause of bladder rupture (1973-1983) in 87 cases is discussed.
