Chromophobic renal cell carcinoma with sarcomatoid differentiation is a rare tumor characterized by a biphasic tumor with both classic epithelial components and sarcomatoid components with poor prognostic factors, usually in association with the rhabdoid contingent which has the potential to behave aggressively and metastasize. We report a particular case of recurrence of this entity in a male patient in which the diagnosis was suspicious preoperatively for the tumor evolution time and the size of the mass and the imaging data performed. The patient underwent extensive left total nephrectomy and lymph node dissection. The postoperative follow up was marked by early appearance of recurrence within 6 weeks after surgery.
