Overview

Metanephric adenoma (MA)is a rare, benign tumor of the kidney.

Historical Perspective

Metanephric adenoma was first described by Brisigotti, Cozzutto et al. in 1992.[1]

Classification

There is no classification system established for metanephric adenoma.

Pathophysiology

On gross pathology, a sharply circumscribed, nonencapsulated solitary mass is the characteristic finding of metanephric adenoma. On microscopic histopathological analysis, small uniform cells with fine chromatin and smooth nuclear membrane, variable architecture, and psammoma bodies are characteristic findings of metanephric adenoma.

Causes

Metanephric adenoma may be caused by the allelic changes of tumor suppressor gene on chromosome 2p13. [2]

Differential Diagnosis

Metanephric adenoma must be differentiated from renal cell carcinoma and Wilm's tumor.[3]

Epidemiology and Demographics

The incidence of metanephric adenoma increases with age; the median age at diagnosis is 50-60 years.[4] Females are more commonly affected with metanephric adenoma than males. The female to male ratio is approximately 2 to 1.[4]

Risk Factors

There are no established risk factors for metanephric adenoma.
