Spontaneous regression of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a wellrecognized and interesting phenomenon that is poorly understood and rarely documented. There are very few reported cases of spontaneously regressed primary RCC. We present a 63-year-old male with a biopsy-proven RCC that regressed with complete resolution of symptoms.
