Abstract

Metanephric Adenoma (MA) is a rare and unclassifiable renal tumour with sparse reported clinical and morphological features. Generally MA's have a benign course without recurrence after nephrectomy, however a few cases received oncological treatment due to malignant progression. We present a 42-year-old woman who years after an initial nephrectomy developed several processes and biopsy confirmed recurrence of MA. Sunitinib was given for only two weeks, as she developed side-effects and currently the patient undergoes control scans with only minimal growth of the processes. This is the first case of MA treated with Tyrosin-Kinase-Inhibitor.
