Solid Variant of Papillary Cystadenoma of the Epididymis Mimicking Metastatic Clear Cell Renal Carcinoma

Shaun Rees and Majid Rashid

Papillary Cystadenomas of the Epididymis (PCE) are benign neoplasms of the epididymis. Their appearance can often be confused with that of a metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma (clear cell RCC) due to similar appearances under microscopy. Here, we report a case of a 65 year old diabetic male, who presented with a rare solid variant of PCE; whereby normal papillary or cystic structures were absent. We then performed a wider immunohistochemical profile in comparison to a similar case reported in 2014 (Yang, et al.).
