Zusammenfassung:Crizotinib is an anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK) inhibitor that was approved for ALK-harboring lung cancer. There have been reports about the development and progression of renal cysts from crizotinib. We report a series of 3 cases of crizotinib-associated renal cysts in patients admitted to our institution, with different kinds of presentation. A monitor for complex renal cysts is warranted in patients receiving crizotinib.
