Excerpt

In 2008, Sterlacci et al. [1] reported on a puzzling renal tumor presenting as a solitary mass mimicking thyroid follicular carcinoma (with focal “papillary differentiation”), which was thyroglobulin (TG) and TTF1 immunonegative. Initially interpreted as a metastasis from the thyroid, it was then considered to be primary after the histopathological examination of the excised thyroid failed to show any evidence of malignancy, but the patient subsequently developed a pulmonary metastasis, with identical histomorphology which demonstrated TTF-1 immunoexpression. This year, Amin et al. [2] described six cases of a primary thyroid-like renal follicular carcinoma. …
