Abstract

Metanephric adenoma is a rare type of benign renal tumour that is encountered mostly in adult females and rarely in children. To this day, the imaging characteristics of the tumour have not been clearly defined. In this study, we have presented one of our patients in order to analyze metanephric adenoma with regard to its clinical symptoms, imaging, pathology, diagnosis, and treatment.

MA = metanephric adenoma, MRI = magnetic resonance imaging, TA= ArterialTension, PRCC = Papillary renal cell carcinoma,WT =wilms tumour, RA= renal adenoma, CT =computed tomography, CD = cluster of differentiation; EMA = epithelial membrane antigen, AMACR = α-methylacyl-CoA racemase, TTF =thyroid transcription factor-1, CK= cytokeratin; + = positive, - = negative

Keywords: metanephric adenoma, benign tumour, biopsy
