Overview
Overview
The incidence of renal oncocytoma is approximately 3% to 7% of solid renal resected tumors. Patients of all age groups may develop renal oncocytoma. The age of patients can be differ from 10 to 94 years. The incidence of renal oncocytoma increases with age; the median age at the time of surgery is 62 to 68 years. Males are more commonly affected by renal oncocytoma than females. The male to female ratio is approximately 2 to 1.
