title: Renal cell carcinoma, unclassified with unique features.
abstract: Renal cell carcinoma, unclassified constitute about 3-4% of all renal carcinomas. It essentially is a tumor where more than morphological variants or subtypes are seen in a single tumor. Usually there is a mixture of 2-3 different types. However, in this particular case there were at least 5 different types of morphological patterns in a single tumor including areas of so-called rhabdoid differentiation. The patient underwent nephrectomy and has been asymptomatic for the last 3.5. years. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of its own kind in the published literature.
