-The patient is an 64 year old white male who presented with left sided back pain. Imaging showed a left perinephric retroperitoneal hematoma and a left renal lower pole cystic lesion with hemorrhage. Additional imaging showed numerous pulmonary lesions. A endobronchial ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration was scheduled.

 ====Resident Questions====
-* <spoiler text="What is your differential diagnosis?">These groups of cells demonstrate malignant appearing cells in a background of an otherwise benign appearing lymphoid background. The atypical cells are scattered, with large nucleoli and several binucleate forms. In addition, there seem to be an increased number of eosinophils in the background. The differential diagnosis includes Hodgkin lymphoma; however, the possibility of the large atypical cells being melanoma cannot be ruled out.  </spoiler>
+* <spoiler text="What are other immunohistochemical stains that would be applicable in this case?">
-* <spoiler text="What ancillary tests would you recommend?">For this patient, we recommended that the radiologist perform a biopsy of the lesion so that it could be sent for immunohistochemical workup. Since the overall percentage of the atypical cells were low, we were worried that a cell block would not contain enough of the malignant cells for additional stains. We also sent the lymph node for flow since a hematologic malignancy was suspected; however, with Hodgkin lymphoma, we don't expect any diagnostic findings from flow cytometry.</spoiler>
+** RCC
-* <spoiler text="What immunohistochemical stains would you do?">CD15, CD30, and PAX5 would stain tumor cells in Hodkin lymphoma. Mart1, HMB45, and S100 could be used to rule out melanoma. Other additional stain in a lymphoma versus melanoma workup might include CD3, CD20, and keratin.</spoiler>

 == Clinical Summary ==
-The patient is an 60 year old male with a remote history of an abdominal melanoma that was excised with negative margins. The patient has been experiencing lower back pain for the past several months and has received epidural injections. As a part of the workup, the patient had a CT which revealed retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. A CT guided fine needle aspiration and biopsy of a paracaval lymph node was performed.

-* PET CT showed hypermetabolic activity with an SUV of 12.7.
+* CT Abdomen shows a large perinephric hematoma and large low anterior structure in left lower pole suspicious for a hemorrhagic renal cell carcinoma.
-* CT of abdomen and pelvis showed adenopathy adjacent to the aorta and inferior to the vena cava at the level of the right kidney. The largest node measured 4 cm in greatest dimension.
+* CT Chest shows multiple small lung lesions measuring up to 13x12 mm in greatest dimension.
