Nonmetastatic renal cell carcinoma presenting with persistent cough: Case report with literature review

Renal cell carcinomas (RCC), constitute 80– 85% of primary renal neoplasms. The classic triad of RCC (flank pain, hematuria, and a palpable abdominal renal mass) occurs in approximately 9% of patients; it strongly suggests locally advanced disease. RCC may also be associated with a number of paraneo...
