Abstract
Patients with renal oncocytosis usually present with multiple and bilateral renal nodules. Half of the patients had chronic kidney disease at diagnosis and 25% had new onset of chronic kidney disease. No patient had distant metastatic disease during followup. Our management approach is to perform partial nephrectomy when possible and then use careful surveillance of the remaining renal masses.
