Cutaneous metastases from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) are uncommon, but may be painful and deforming. A review of the English language literature yields no references regarding the use of radiotherapy in the palliation of cutaneous RCC metastases. We report the first documented case of a patient with a single RCC facial metastatic nodule treated with hypofractionated electron beam radiotherapy followed by administration of sorafenib. The patient achieved a complete resolution of the cutaneous metastasis.
肾细胞癌（RCC）的皮肤转移并不常见，但可能会引起疼痛并导致畸形。对英文文献的回顾未发现有关放疗用于缓解RCC皮肤转移的相关参考文献。我们报告了首例有记录的病例，一名患者面部有单个RCC转移结节，接受了大分割电子束放疗，随后给予索拉非尼治疗。该患者的皮肤转移灶完全消退。
