Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) is a tumor derived from the renal tubular epithelium, representing approximately 90% of malignant kidney neoplasms, and it has a radiological presentation as a nodule with varying enhancement on sectional diagnostic methods. It can be asymptomatic, with diagnosis often made through imaging studies performed for other reasons. Oncocytoma is a benign tumor that has a radiological presentation similar to RCC, accounting for approximately 4 to 10% of nephrectomies resulting from an initial suspicion of RCC.
