Presentation
The findings are presented along with a review of the literature. There were 4 males and 1 female ranging in age from forty-two to sixty-three years. Each presented with a mass on excretory urography, and 1 contained calcification. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Presentation A 36 year old woman with a history of end stage renal disease secondary to IgA nephropathy presents with vague abdominal pain. At the time of presentation she was on hemodialysis. [sonoworld.com]
These tumors may present with various hormonal characteristics including rare presentation of responsiveness to gonadotrophins being reported. [hoajonline.com]

Respiratoric
- Sputum
The symptoms that are highly suggestive of adrenal adenoma are muscle swelling, low back weakness, elbow cramps or spasms, back weakness, and pus in sputum, although you may still have adrenal adenoma without those symptoms. [symcat.com]
Gastrointestinal
- Abdominal Mass
Previously reported infants with malignant and benign solid tumors causing humoral hypercalcemia have presented with large abdominal masses. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Classic symptoms - combination of flank pain, hematuria and a palpable abdominal mass occur in less than 10%. In about 30% of patients, there are unusual abnormalities seen that may be due to presence of renal cell carcinoma. [clevelandurology.net]
See separate articles Abdominal Masses, Loin Pain and Haematuria which discuss the various causes. Investigations Urinalysis, cytology, culture and sensitivity should be performed to exclude urinary tract infection. [patient.info]
Metanephric adenoma cases were coincidentally found in 20 patients (40%), and six patients had polycythemia (12%). 11 patients (22%) presented with abdominal pain/flank pain, 5 with hematuria (10%) and another 5 with abdominal mass (10%). [pubs.sciepub.com]
CT AND MRI Incidental renal masses may also be detected on the standard abdominal CT scan. [aafp.org]

[…] and E, ×100) Click here to view Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis is a rare but severe form of renal parenchymal infection whereby the chronic granulomatous inflammatory process destroys and replaces the renal parenchyma by lipid-laden macrophages (xanthoma [ijpmonline.org]
Workup
For instance, the workup for an otherwise resectable lung cancer may reveal the presence of an adrenal mass and suggest the possibility of metastatic disease. (See Workup.) The treatment for a hormonally active (functional) adrenal tumor is surgery. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Of the six tumors with discordant immunophenotype, two tumors were reclassified as papillary renal cell carcinoma after cytogenetic workup. [nature.com]
Treatment
The treatment of the renal adenoma is based on the imaging of the tumor. But this method of ascertaining the nature and size of the adenoma is inadequate. In this case, more sophisticated technology is applied for the treatment of the disease. [healthdrip.com]
Noninvasive treatment approaches are usually preferred because the risks for the patient are much lower. [wisegeek.com]
One should use the criteria of size, gross characteristics, a frozen section biopsy, and the status of the other kidney to decide between tumor excision, nephrectomy, and no further treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The surgical treatment methods may include: Endoscopic surgery Nephron-sparing surgery Partial or complete nephrectomy Tumor embolization is a possible treatment option. [dovemed.com]
Prognosis
Prognosis Metastases have occurred with very small papillary primaries, but the prognosis is generally excellent. References 1 Renshaw, A. A. (2002). "Subclassification of renal cell neoplasms: an update for the practising pathologist." [e-immunohistochemistry.info]
The prognosis is excellent for small benign tumors on their complete removal However, the prognosis of larger Renal Papillary Adenomas depends on a variety of factors including the histological pattern, tumor stage, and health status of the affected individual [dovemed.com]
Such tumors involve special aspects of both diagnosis and therapy and also have a distinctive prognosis. [books.google.de]
Etiology
(Etiology) The exact cause of Papillary Adenoma of Kidney formation is unknown. [dovemed.com]
Etiology Some studies report an association with chromosomal and genetic abnormalities (genes coding for p53 and p57). Tumor markers are also present in other syndromes. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Epidemiology
Epidemiology These are very common incidental findings. They are found more commonly in kidneys containing renal cell carcinoma or oncocytoma, particularly the hereditary form of papillary renal cell carcinoma. [e-immunohistochemistry.info]

Pathophysiology
Pathophysiology The biochemical mechanisms depend on the underlying cell type. The cellular mechanisms for primary adrenocortical tumorigenesis are just beginning to be understood. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Prevention
The combined use of two drugs that are prescribed for other conditions, eflonithine and sulindac, may prevent the development of adenomas or the recurrence of colon cancer. [encyclopedia.com]
