Mucinous tubular and spindle cell renal carcinoma (MTSCR) is a rare type of kidney cancer that is characterized by the presence of mucin-producing tubular and spindle-shaped cells. It is a slow-growing tumor that is usually found in the renal cortex and can be difficult to diagnose due to its rarity. Treatment typically involves surgical removal of the tumor, but chemotherapy and radiation may also be used.

The most common symptom of Mucinous tubular and spindle cell renal carcinoma is blood in the urine (hematuria). Other symptoms may include Pain in the side or lower back, a lump in the abdomen, weight loss, fatigue, and fever.

The exact cause of mucinous tubular and spindle cell renal carcinoma (MTSCR) is unknown. However, some risk factors have been identified, including a family history of kidney cancer, certain genetic mutations, and exposure to certain environmental toxins. Additionally, certain lifestyle factors, such as smoking, obesity, and a diet high in processed meats, may increase the risk of developing MTSCR.

Treatment for mucinous tubular and spindle cell renal carcinoma typically involves surgery to remove the tumor, followed by chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy. In some cases, targeted therapy may be used to target specific genetic mutations that are driving the cancer. In addition, immunotherapy may be used to help the body's immune system fight the cancer. Finally, clinical trials may be available for patients with this type of cancer.
