Abstract

This article discusses a rare case of mucinous cystadenoma of the renal pelvis, a benign tumor of the kidney. The patient, a 71-year-old Chinese female, presented with swelling and pain in the right lumbar region. After various examinations and procedures, including CT scans and laparoscopic nephrectomy, the tumor was successfully removed. The patient had a good recovery and showed no signs of recurrence or metastasis during the 1-month follow-up. This case provides valuable insights into the diagnosis and treatment of mucinous cystadenoma of the renal pelvis, which is a rare and challenging condition. [Extracted from the article]
