There is limited information on ipsilateral synchronous papillary renal cell carcinoma (PRCC) and clear cell renal cell carcinoma (CCRCC). Therefore, these rare tumors are often misdiagnosed preoperatively as a single tumor with intrarenal metastasis or some other diseases. Effective management and long-term overall survival might be affected because the prognosis of the two tumors differs.
