Deskripsi

Hemangiopericytoma, a tumour arising from pericytes is an unusually rare kidney neoplasm. It is difficult to establish a preoperative diagnosis. Here, we present a case report of a 47-year-old gentleman who presented with haematuria and underwent left radical nephrectomy as preoperative imaging was suggestive of Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC). The final histopathological diagnosis was hemangiopericytoma of the left kidney.
