Sažetak
A case of multilocular, cystic metanephric adenoma in a 34-year-old man is presented to increase awareness among urologists and radiologists of this rare entity. Metanephric adenoma of the kidney is an uncommon benign epithelial tumor that may present at any age. To our knowledge, only few cases of cystic manifestation have been reported. Metanephric adenoma is extremely rare and its diagnosis should be considered in a patient with well circumscribed multilocular renal tumor and paraneoplastic syndromes. Its appearance on sonography, intravenous pyelography and magnetic resonance is described. Distinct pathologic features are also discussed. Radiologic and clinical features of the tumor are nonspecific, and histopathologic examination is essential to establish definitive diagnosis. Its recognition may facilitate nephron-sparing surgery.
