About adenomas
Adenomas are the most common benign renal parenchymal lesions.
- Despite the classification of adenoma as a benign tumor, no
clinical, histologic or immunohistochemical criteria can differentiate renal adenoma from renal carcinoma.
Smith's Urology writes about adenomas ?
- "Previously, all renal tumors less than 3 cm were considered
adenomas. However, even such small tumors can metastasize and
are now classified as renal cell carcinoma. Adenomas of any size
should be treated as a fortuitous finding representative of an early
renal cancer, and the patient should be evaluated and treated
appropriately.
