case_images: Pathological examination. (a) The primary tumor of her left shoulder demonstrated the sheets of differentiated cartilage cells. (b) Immunohistochemical staining showed positive for toluidine blue reflecting cartilage cells containing acidic mucopolysaccharide. (c) Pathological examination in the kidney was similar to that in the primary tumor of her left shoulder.

case_images: The tumor was composed of cartilage cells growing a lobular architecture with eosinophilic reticulum and myxoid stromal tissue and was diagnosed as Grade 2 chondrosarcoma (Figure 1(a)). Considering the primary tumor pathological findings, we hypothesized that the tumor was composed of cartilage cells with a high cell density and enlarged nuclei (Figure 1(a)). The tumor cells were positive for toluidine blue staining, confirming a cartilaginous component (Figure 1(b)). The kidney tumor was also diagnosed as Grade 2 chondrosarcoma (Figure 1(c)).
case_images: (a) CT scan demonstrated a cyst in the upper half of the right kidney and no septa or calcifications (arrow). (b) T2-weighted MRI showed a cystic tumor with a high signal (arrow). (c) Diffusion-weighted MRI (DW-MRI) showed rim enhancement (arrow).

case_images: No septa or calcifications were observed in the tumor (Figure 2(a)). Contrast-enhanced images showed a thick, slightly enhanced cystic wall, and the tumor was classified as a Bosniak IIF cystic renal lesion (Figure 2(b)).
case_images: On retrograde pyelography, an incomplete double ureter was showed and a solitary filling defect was observed in the upper pole of the right renal pelvis (arrow).

case_images: Retrograde pyelography demonstrated a solitary filling defect in the upper pole of the right renal pelvis (Figure 3).
case_images: Urine cytology demonstrated low-grade malignant cells with a mucus-like substance (x400).

case_images: Urine cytology demonstrated low-grade malignant cells with a light green stained large reticulum and a mucus-like substance (Figure 4).
case_images: Tumor located in the upper pole with invasion into the renal pelvis.
