Genetically driven tissue destruction followed by remodeling in adult polycystic kidney disease (APKD) raises the possibility of malignant transformation. Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) associated with APKD has been frequently reported in the literature; however, only a few cases of nonepithelial neoplasms arising in APKD have been described so far. Histiocytic sarcoma (HS) is a lymphohematopoietic malignant neoplasm that accounts for less than 1% of hematologic malignancies. In this article, we describe a case of primary HS occurring in a 61-year-old man with end-stage renal disease secondary to APKD. This is the first reported case of primary HS in the setting of APKD. The aberrant h-caldesmon expression seen in this case is another novel finding that has previously not been described. This case highlights the importance of morphology in guiding diagnostic workup and reiterates the necessity of maintaining a high index of suspicion for neoplastic entities in APKD.
