We report a case of adrenal myelolipoma with multiple calcification and hypertension. A 69-year-old woman visited our hospital with a complaint of right flank pain. Computed tomography demonstrated a right adrenal tumor which was a spherical mass with fat density and multiple calcification. Adrenal scintigraphy of I-131 adosterol demonstrated predominant accumulation of the right adrenal gland. Selective venous sampling disclosed a high aldosterone level (303.7 ng/dl) from the affected side. Right adrenalectomy was performed. Pathological diagnosis revealed adrenal myelolipoma with calcification. After the operation the patient became normotensive. The characteristics of the 12 cases of myelolipoma with calcification we found in the Japanese literature are also briefly reviewed.

A 76-year-old man was admitted to our hospital on October 3, 1988 complaining of general fatigue and left flank pain. A large movable mass was palpable in his left flank. Intravenous pyelography and computerized tomography confirmed left renal tumor. Chest X-ray showed a coin lesion in the left lung. Left nephrectomy was performed on October 14, 1988. Histopathological diagnosis was adenocarcinoma of clear cell type. Chest X-rays, on the postoperative eleventh day, showed disappearance of the pulmonary coin lesion which was seen preoperatively. Recurrence of pulmonary metastasis has not been seen for 14 months after operation.

A case of rhabdomyosarcoma in the retroperitoneal space is reported. The patient, a 71-year-old man, visited us with a complaint of left flank pain. The tumor measuring 13 x 10 x 7 cm and weighing 700 g, was removed operatively. The patient had no evidence of recurrence in 12 months following surgery.

In October 14, 1982, a 30-year-old male was admitted to the hospital because of a left flank pain and melena. On undergoing testing, an upper gastrointestinal series revealed barium retention in the small bowel, in which an abdomen X-p showed an abnormal gas shadow. Endoscopic examinations revealed depressive lesions, and the histological diagnosis was malignant neoplasm with a duodenal wall infiltration. A superior mesentric arteriogram showed the dilatation of the media colic artery and neovascular lesions. Thus a leiomyosarcoma of the small intestine was suspected, and the patient underwent surgery on November 15. The tumor was sack-like and looked black; histologically it was diagnosed as a small intestine, because the primary origin was only detected in the small intestine. Four months after the operation, the tumor recurred and the patient died in June, 1983.

A 41-year-old miller undergoing hemodialysis for 9 years presented with recurrent episodes of asymptomatic gross hematuria of a 7 years' duration and left flank pain with slight fever of a four months' duration. CT scans revealed bilateral acquired cystic disease of the kidney (ACDK) and a mass (phi 4 cm) in the medial portion of the left kidney, which was angiographically a hypovascular tumor. Cystoscopic examination revealed multiple papillary tumors arising from the entire bladder wall. These findings suggested that the renal mass was a renal pelvic tumor. Bilateral nephroureterectomy with left paraaortic lymph nodes dissection and radical cystectomy were carried out, followed by urethrectomy two weeks later. Histologically, multiple papillary transitional cell carcinomas with G2 greater than G3 anaplasia were found in the left renal pelvis, the lower portion of the left ureter and the bladder. The tumors were predominantly superficial, although the renal pelvic one focally invaded into the muscular layer. Lymph node metastasis and renal cell carcinoma were not recognized. Postoperative course was uneventful with normal blood pressure, though anemia was slightly progressive. He has been free of disease for six months.

A case of giant renal hamartoma considered as congenital mesoblastic nephroma in an adult is reported. A 24-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with complaints of macroscopic hematuria and left flank pain. On clinical examination, a large left renal tumor was recognized and radical left nephrectomy was performed. The tumor weighed 2,500 g. On histological examination, the tumor was composed of spindle-shaped cells, that were considered as fibroblasts, surrounded by abundant collagenous interstitial material, and many cystic or tubular structures lined by cuboidal epithelium were also seen in the peripheral region. Because of histological similarity we considered this tumor as congenital mesoblastic nephroma in an adult.

The patient, a 45-year-old male, complained of left flank pain and fever. CT revealed bilateral adrenal tumors, in which MRI disclosed inhomogeneous signal intensity with low signal intensity rim. Arteriography demonstrated bilateral adrenal tumors with moderately rich tumor vessels.

Transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) has been widely used in the treatment of tumors as well as other lesions of the kidney. Complications most commonly encountered are post embolization syndrome, such as flank pain, fever, leucocytosis, nausea, vomiting, or ileus. They occur mostly in 24 to 48 hours and its treatment is symptomatic. We experienced a renal abscess developed in a patient of renal tumor with preexisting silent urosepsis. Precise examination of silent infection is recommended as a preprocedure test to avoid such complications.

Two cases of metastatic renal tumor are reported, one in a 78-year-old male who had undergone total gastrectomy for gastric carcinoma, and the other in a 45-year-old female who had undergone hysterectomy for cervical carcinoma of the uterus. The chief complaint was flank pain and nephrectomy was performed in both cases. Histopathological examination of the removed specimen revealed metastatic renal tumor the primary site of which was probably the stomach in the first case and cervix uteri in the second case. The literature on metastatic renal tumors in Japan is reviewed.

A 40-year-old pregnant woman, who suffered a continuous episode of fever and anemia since the 26th week of pregnancy, was referred to our clinic for evaluation of her left flank pain and tumor. As retroperitoneal tumor was suspected by retrograde pyelography, sonography and CT, translumbar tumorectomy was performed under general anesthesia. The histological diagnosis was retroperitoneal abscess.
