SOCORRO CASTRO, Caridad; RODRIGUEZ PALACIOS, Katia  e  ALVARADO BORGES, Annia. Mucinous Adenocarcinoma of Renal Pelvis. A Case Presentation. Medisur [online]. 2012, vol.10, n.1, pp. 66-68. ISSN 1727-897X.

Malignant neoplasms of the kidney represent about 2% of all cancers, being renal cell carcinoma the most frequent presentation in this group with a frequency of 80% to 90%. Adenocarcinoma of the renal pelvis is a rare neoplasm, which occurs in less than 1% of patients with renal malignancies and is associated, most of the times, to inflammatory processes of the organ and to renal stones. For all these reasons it was decided to publish a clinical case diagnosed in the Anatomical Pathology Department of the Dr. Gustavo Aldereguía Lima General University Hospital in Cienfuegos. A female patient over forty years old presented this histological variant of kidney cancer.
