Kidney cancer is classified as malignant tumors originating from different renal cells with several subtypes. The cells of these subtypes can mimic a benign kidney tumor, called oncocytoma. The unequivocal differentiation is essential for planning the
adequate operative procedure (tumor removal [oncocytoma] or complete kidney resection with lymph node preparation [malignant kidney cancer]) and potential follow up (not necessary in oncocytoma).
