Renal collecting duct (Bellini) carcinoma is a very rare variant of renal cell carcinoma. It is associated with a poor prognosis and is often metastatic at the time of diagnosis. We report a case of a 44-year-old man affected by Bellini carcinoma, who underwent postoperative staging with 18F-FDG PET/CT. It revealed high tracer uptake at multiple lymph nodal metastases.

Primary renal collecting duct carcinoma is an extremely rare neoplasm. We present a case of preoperative collecting duct carcinoma with enhanced MRI and F-FDG PET/CT findings. The MRI and PET imaging showed a round mass in the left kidney, as well as multiple retroperitoneal lesions with slight enhancement and intense FDG uptake, respectively. A left radical nephrectomy was performed. Primary renal collecting duct carcinoma and retroperitoneal lymph node metastases were confirmed histopathologically.
