    Interesting case! Some additional questions come to mind - Which genetic syndromes should we test for? Can anything be done to prevent new cancers from forming (and save from local recurrences/dialysis)? What would be the surveillance guidelines? What kind of surgical guidelines if new local tumors form?

    With bilateral papillary RCC one needs to consider hereditary papillary RCC which is an autosomal dominant disease. Would test tumor samples for c-MET (papillary type 1) and Fumarate hydratase (Papillary type 2). As per NCCN guidelines (category 2A) non-clear cell RCC can be treated with Temsirolimus. Clinical trial if available would be highly indicated.
