Background: renal cell carcinomas mostly appear in the renal parenchyma; there are some few cases in which they initially appear in a renal cyst so they are identified as renal cyst carcinoma.

Clinical case: the clinical case of a patient who was diagnosed with renal cyst and solid renal tumor in the renal parenchyma, both originated from clear cells, is presented. Ultrasound and CAT scan helped determining the diagnosis. Results: the patient underwent a radical nephrectomy which was performed at the Maria Curie Teaching Oncological Hospital in June 2013 in Camagüey city. The patient was discharged seven days after surgery and a follow-up care was established.
