**PAST UROLOGICAL HISTORY:**
"Mr. Smith is a 65-year-old man with a history of a renal mass first identified two years ago. Initial CT scan showed a 3.5 cm mass in the left kidney. Follow-up MRI six months later indicated slight growth to 3.7 cm. He underwent a biopsy, which revealed a benign oncocytoma. Mr. Smith is a retired engineer who enjoys hiking and photography.
