Abstract
BACKGROUND Primary renal lymphoma (PRL) is extremely rare with an incidence of 0.7% among extranodal lymphomas. Occult renal lymphoma, which mimics medical renal disease and bilateral renal involvement, presents a diagnostic challenge to nephrologists and radiologists as the clinical and radiological findings are mostly non-specific or inconclusive. Acute kidney injury (AKI) is not an uncommon finding in renal infiltration due to malignant lymphoma. However, only 14% of cases are detected before death, and the low diagnostic rate may be due to the non-specific clinical manifestations of renal involvement, with only 0.5% of these cases presenting with AKI. Moreover, PRL is difficult to diagnose based on clinical, biochemical, and radiologic features, especially, in the case of bilateral diffuse involvement. CASE SUMMARY Herein, we report a 74-year-old woman with primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who presented with AKI diagnosed by ultrasound-guided needle biopsy. We also report the clinicopathologic findings of 121 PRL cases reported since 1989, by conducting a literature review of published cases. CONCLUSION A timely renal biopsy provides the most expedient means of establishing the diagnosis. Thus, early identification of the disease by the clinician facilitates early diagnosis toward effective treatment.

Abstract
RATIONALE Only 20 cases of pediatric primary renal non-Hodgkin's lymphoma have been reported since 1995, rare cases and a variety of imaging manifestations have led to difficulties in its diagnosis and treatment. PATIENT CONCERNS Herein, we share in detail a case of primary renal lymphoma (PRL) in a child and summarize the common clinical manifestations, imaging features, and prognostic factors of pediatric PRL by retrospectively analyzing cases reported in the literature. A 2-year-old boy presented to the clinic with a large mass on the right side of his abdomen along with loss of appetite. DIAGNOSES Imaging revealed a large right renal mass, nearly replacing the entire renal tissue, along with numerous small nodules in the left kidney. Given no local adenopathy and metastases, the diagnosis was unclear. A percutaneous renal puncture was performed, which proved the diagnosis of Burkitt's lymphoma. Since no bone marrow involvement, this child was diagnosed with pediatric PRL. INTERVENTIONS This PRL boy was treated with the NHL-BFM95 protocol and supportive care. OUTCOMES Unfortunately, this boy died of multiple organ failure in the fifth month of treatment. LESSONS As per literature review, the presentation of pediatric PRL is fatigue, loss of appetite, weight loss, abdominal swelling, or other nonspecific symptoms. Although in 81% of cases it often infiltrates the bilateral kidneys, urine abnormalities caused by pediatric PRL are uncommon. 76.2% of pediatric PRL were boys and 2/3 of all cases presented as diffuse renal enlargement. Those PRL presented as masses could easily be misdiagnosed as WT or other malignancies. Absent of local enlarged lymph node, no necrosis or calcification suggest atypical presentation of renal masses and a percutaneous biopsy is needed in timely establishing the accurate diagnosis for appropriate treatment. Based on our experience, percutaneous renal puncture core biopsy is a safe procedure.

Renal involvement of lymphomas proven by kidney biopsy: report of 10 cases from a tertiary care center and comparison with the literature. Int J Hematol 2022; 116:678-695.

Abstract
Lymphomas localized in the kidney are a rare entity that may be challenging to diagnose. We analyzed data from 10 patients with renal involvement of lymphoma diagnosed between 2009 and 2019 on fine needle biopsy from our tertiary center, and compared these with findings of 160 cases reported in the literature. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma was the main histology subtype (40 and 38% in our sample and in the literature, respectively), followed by low-grade B-cell lymphomas, mostly from the marginal zone (MZ). Altogether, 106 patients had urological inaugural symptoms and 64 had general symptoms. Patients with urological presentation more often had renal masses than diffuse infiltration (p < 0.001), unilateral tumors (p = 0.0036) and low-grade B-cell lymphomas (17 vs 6%, p = 0.043). In both groups, nearly one-fourth of patients had diffuse (stage IV) lymphomas. Overall survival did not differ by the presence of urological/systemic symptoms, stage or aggressive lymphoma status. Notably, 3 of 10 patients from our series had MZ lymphomas associated with primary Sjögren syndrome revealed by acute kidney injury, including one where the autoimmune disease was detected. Lymphoproliferative disorders localized in the kidney are a challenging condition that can lead to detection of aggressive or diffuse lymphomas.

Abstract
Renal involvement by Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) is very rare, and involvement of the kidney as the primary site of NHL (PRNHL) is much more uncommon. Gold standard for the diagnosis of PRNHL is histology and imaging modalities although helpful are not specific. Nephrectomy has been mostly recommended for low grade lymphomas, and for high grade PRNHLs, chemotherapy without nephrectomy has been recommended as the treatment of choice. This tumor is aggressive with poor prognosis. This poor prognosis is partly because of delayed diagnosis and partly because of unnecessary surgeries, so it should be kept in mind, especially in bilateral renal tumors with unusual imaging characteristics, to take a tissue biopsy before nephrectomy. In this review, we will discuss all the detailed aspects of clinical, pathologic, and imaging characteristics of 83 cases of PRNHL reported in the last 20 years in the English literature so far. For this purpose, all the published cases of the primary non-Hodgkin's lymphoma of kidney were reviewed via a search in PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar, (1999-2019), using the keywords of "Primary renal lymphoma" and "Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and kidney," "renal Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma," "renal lymphoma," and "lymphoma and kidney." There were 83 cases in the published English literature which were reviewed for this article. There was some missing information in some cases which has been recorded as "not reported."

Abstract
A 12-year-old boy presented with a prolonged history of headache, fatigue and hypertension. Initial investigations were consistent with presumed non-oliguric end-stage renal disease, leading to a provisional diagnosis of juvenile nephronophthisis. Subsequent imaging demonstrated bilaterally enlarged kidneys without cystic change. Mutation analysis was negative for nephronophthisis, causing diagnostic uncertainty which prompted renal biopsy. Histology revealed a primary renal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma which was highly responsive to chemotherapy, including the anti-CD20 monoclonal agent, rituximab. Renal function improved during lymphoma treatment, with residual chronic kidney disease stage 3a once chemotherapy was completed. Atypical diagnostic features should always prompt re-evaluation of a patient. In this case, the delayed malignancy diagnosis did not have an adverse effect on patient survival or morbidity. The outcome for primary renal lymphoma (PRL) has improved markedly following the introduction of rituximab.

Abstract
Non-Hodgkin's lymphomas (NHL) are common malignant tumors in children and adolescents. Among them diffuse large B-cell lymphomas (DLBCL) are relatively rare as compared to non-cleaved small cell lymphoma (mostly Burkitt's-BL) and lymphoblastic lymphoma (LL). While BL has abdominal or cervical site predilection, LL (mostly T-cell) tends to have mediastinal involvement. However, diffuse large B-cell lymphomas may involve abdomen, peripheral lymph nodes, skin, bone, other rare sites. Ureteral NHLs are extremely rare in children; however, many cases have been reported in adults. In adults the histopathology is usually follicular lymphoma. Only one case of unilateral ureter DLBCL has been reported in an adolescent in the past. Here we report a case of bilateral ureteral DLBCL to highlight the unusual presentation of NHLs and that it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of acute renal insufficiency.

Abstract
Primary renal lymphoma (PRL) is a rare disease process which represents less than 1% of all renal masses and is an uncommon type of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. PRL is of clinical significance due to the fact that unlike the more commonly seen renal cell carcinoma, PRL is treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy followed by nephrectomy. This challenges the long held notion that preoperative biopsies are not necessary prior to nephrectomy for renal masses. In this paper, we present a case of a primary renal lymphoma and discuss its clinical significance.

Abstract
Introduction Primary renal lymphoma is a rare malignant lymphoma that is difficult to differentiate from renal cell carcinoma. Positron emission tomography/computed tomography and image-guided percutaneous biopsy are valuable tools for diagnosis. Case report A 64-year-old woman presented with a 2-year history of repeated right waist pain and a 1-month history of nausea, vomiting, and frequent and urgent urination. A computed tomography scan showed a huge mass that was initially considered to be renal cell carcinoma at the upper pole of the right kidney. The mass had invaded the renal pelvis, narrowed the right renal artery, and constricted the inferior vena cava and liver. Postoperative examination of the tumor confirmed lymphoma. We herein present this case and its multidisciplinary team management. Conclusion Multidisciplinary team management is efficient for preoperative assessment and surgery in difficult and high-risk cases. Based on our literature review, we suggest biopsy before chemotherapy whenever possible. Chemotherapy can be implemented after surgery for better survival outcomes.

Abstract
Primary renal lymphoma is a rare entity, even more so in children. Children with primary renal lymphoma present with variable clinical features such as constitutional signs and symptoms, acute kidney injury, palpable abdominal masses, and gross hematuria. Herein we report a child who presented with seemingly advanced chronic kidney disease and was eventually diagnosed with primary lymphoma. He responded well to intensive chemotherapy and recovered renal function, although he was left with some functional limitations as a consequence of his treatment regimen. Our report highlights the importance of keeping neoplastic conditions under consideration when taking care of children with severe kidney disease of unclear etiology.

Abstract
Renal lymphoma is an uncommon renal tumor in children. Unlike renal lymphomas presenting as bilateral disease and renal failure, we report a boy who presented with unilateral renal involvement. After initial nephrectomy, he achieved remission with multiagent chemotherapy but relapsed systemically within 3 months. He was initiated on salvage chemotherapy with autologous bone marrow transplant. Even though the initial manifestation was localized lymphoma eventually, it turned out to be a systemic disease. He succumbed to disease at 14 months from diagnosis.

Abstract
Primary renal lymphoma (PRL) is a rare disease, with no more than 70 cases reported in the literature. The present study reports the case of a 70-year-old woman with PRL. The patient was asymptomatic, however, a mass on the right kidney was identified incidentally during routine physical examination. Computed tomography revealed a mass in the right kidney that was 3.6 cm in diameter. Subsequently, right nephrectomy was performed. The histological evaluation of the nephrectomy specimen showed diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The patient was treated with 6-8 cycles of a cyclophosphamide, epirubicin, vindesine and dexamethasone regimen. Follow-up examination performed after 2 months of treatment revealed no evidence of local recurrence. The present study also reviewed 49 cases of PRL that have been reported since 1989. It was found that a shorter survival time was experienced by patients with bilateral PRL (mean, 21 months) compared with unilateral PRL (mean, 68 months). A shorter survival time was also experienced by patients who were treated with chemotherapy only (mean, 15.8 months) compared with those who were treated with combination chemotherapy and surgery (mean, 49.4 months).

Abstract
Spectrum of causes for renal dysfunction in patients with hematolymphoid malignancy (excluding plasma cell dyscrasia) is varied. A retrospective evaluation of “native” renal biopsies referred to our institute during the period from January 2010 to December 2013 revealed 12 cases. Age ranged between 7 and 69 (median 54.5) years. All patients were males. The neoplasms included non-Hodgkin lymphoma, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, Burkitt's lymphoma, intravascular lymphoma, Hodgkin lymphoma and chronic myeloid leukemia. Proteinuria was noted in 66% of the patients (nephrotic range in 5, subnephrotic range in 3). Renal insufficiency was noted in 100% patients. Malignancy-related kidney injury was noted in 75% of the cases. Renal histology showed lymphomatous infiltration (8), membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) (3), intracapillary monoclonal deposit disease (1) and intravascular lymphoma (1). Distribution of lymphomatous infiltration was diffuse in 50% and focal in 50%. We observed that renal dysfunction was predominantly a direct effect, that is, lymphomatous invasion. Paraneoplastic glomerulopathic changes occur in the form of MPGN. Proteinuria of >2 g/day correlated with glomerular disease.

Abstract
Renal masses in children may be discovered during routine clinical examination or incidentally during the course of diagnostic or therapeutic procedures for other causes. Renal cancers are rare in the pediatric population and include a spectrum of pathologies that may challenge the clinician in choosing the optimal treatment. Correct identification of the lesion may be difficult, and the appropriate surgical procedure is paramount for lesions suspected to be malignant. The purpose of this article is to provide a comprehensive overview regarding the spectrum of renal tumors in the pediatric population, both benign and malignant, and their surgical management.

Abstract
Primary renal lymphoma (PRL) is a rare disease. We here present the case of an 8-year-old child who presented with bilateral renal masses. On biopsy, it was confirmed to be B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose ((18)F-FDG) positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) for staging demonstrated (18)F-FDG avid bilateral renal masses, with no other abnormal focus. Follow up (18)F-FDG PET/CT showed complete resolution of the disease after six cycles of chemotherapy. Here we have highlighted the potential role of (18)F-FDG PET/CT in staging and response evaluation of a patient with PRL and presented a brief review.

Abstract
UNLABELLED In pediatric patients renal lymphoma frequently presents in the form of multiple, bilateral mass lesions, infrequently as a single or retroperitoneal mass, and rarely as diffuse infiltrative lesions. In patients with apparent central nervous system involvement close attention to other physical and laboratory findings are essential for preventing a delay in the final diagnosis. Herein we present a pediatric patient with renal lymphoma that presented with central nervous system findings that caused a delay in diagnosis. CONFLICT OF INTEREST None declared.
