Abstract
- A medullary fibroma is the most common tumor found in the renal medulla and is seen incidentally in necropsy, but the usual small size and benignancy make clinical detection extremely rare. We report two cases of unusual renal medullary fibroma, incidentally discovered and accompanied by gross hematuria respectively in both sex. Radical nephrectomy and radical ureteronephrectomy with bladder cuff excision were performed because suspected to be malignant renal and renal pelvis tumor in X-ray and clinically. Histological examination revealed renal medullary fibroma. The diagnostic limitation and therapeutic dilemma associated with this condition are discussed.
