  ABSTRACT: We report a rare case of a papillary renal cell carcinoma seeding along a percutaneous biopsy tract detected at the time of partial nephrectomy in a 51-year-old man with a 3.5 cm renal mass discovered on computed tomography scan (CT scan). Although renal percutaneous biopsy is now considered as an accurate and safe technique to provide valuable diagnostic information for indeterminate renal lesions, some inherent risks have been reported to associate with this procedure. One of the risks is tumor needle tract seeding, which is a very rare complication of renal percutaneous biopsy. Our well-documented case report could provide some useful information to evaluate the prognosis of patients with tumor seeding along a percutaneous biopsy tract.
