Exceptional Response of Metastatic Chromophobe Renal Cell Carcinoma to Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) Inhibitors: Should Increased VEGF-C Expression Be Used to Guide Treatment?

<div>Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showing the large renal mass and metastatic lymph nodes. Dramatic reduction in tumor volume in an enlarged lymph node as demonstrated by MRI taken at initial presentation (a) vs. after 5 months of sunitinib (b) and (c). After retroperitoneal lymph node dissection, a complete response was obtained (d).</div>
