We report a case of sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma with chromophobe cell foci. The patient was a 57-year-old Japanese woman with a renal mass measuring 12x8x8 cm in diameter. Histologically, the tumor was composed predominantly of sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma with foci of chromophobe cell carcinoma. The patient died of multiple metastases 2 months after operation. To the best of our knowledge, there have been only two reports of the coexistence of sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma and chromophobe renal cell carcinoma in the literature. Our case indicates that chromophobe cell carcinoma may be connected with sarcomatoid renal cell carcinoma. In such a case, the prognosis may be related to the latter component.
