Renal medullary carcinoma (RMC) is a rare and aggressive renal malignancy that usually presents at an advanced stage, has a poor prognosis, and is associated with sickle cell trait. We present a case of RMC including radiologic and pathology findings, treatment, and outcome. A review of the literature is also presented, with an emphasis on the association of RMC with sickle cell trait, which was an unknown diagnosis in our patient preoperatively.
