A 45-year-old male patient presented with bilateral solid renal mass probably renal cell carcinoma (RCC). After initial treatment, the patient got symptomatic relief from pain in flanks, acute retention of urine and hematuria. The patient initially declined repeated investigations but agreed for an ultrasound after two years of treatment; the result showed reduction in size of the mass. The urea, creatinine and hemoglobin percentage were normal and reported a normal blood pressure. The quality of life was maintained without the conventional surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or immunotherapy. While this case provides evidence of positive outcomes for homeopathic therapy, more studies are required in a hospital setting to establish the real extent to which this therapy may be employed. doi: 10.38205/imcr.010219
