Multilocular cystic renal neoplasm of low malignant potential (MCRCC) by definition is "Neoplasm composed entirely of numerous cysts, the septa of which contain individual or groups of clear cells without expansile growth" according to WHO 2016 classification. In 2016 WHO separates this neoplasm of low malignant potential from cystic renal cell carcinomas which have some overlapping morphologic features. Tumor exibits low stage and low -grade characteristics and is a special type of RCC. We report this case in a 49 year old male patient for its rarity and also to know the importance of it to identify and differentiate from its mimicks.
