Their differentiation from the malignant neoplasms often presents a perplexing problem in diagnosis. We report a case of a unilateral cystic renal mass that appeared diagnostically and pathologically as adult polycystic kidney disease. Differentiation of the mass from a malignant neoplasm and from the benign renal cystic diseases is discussed, along with some thoughts concerning the possibility of a unilateral genetic disorder. © 1982 by The American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetailsCited ByDas A, Susskind M and Walther P (2018) Adult Segmental Cystic Disease of the Kidney: A Renal-Sparing Management ApproachJournal of Urology, VOL. 140, NO. 2, (357-359), Online publication date: 1-Aug-1988.
