Cytodiagnosis of cutaneous metastasis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in the absence of history of primary tumor is difficult as it can be confused with other clear cell tumors. We report here a case of cytodiagnosis of cutaneous metastasis of RCC in a patient who had nephrectomy done 9 years back at some other centre, but did not have any records with him. Clinicians should be aware of the possibility of primary internal organ malignancy in patients presenting with cutaneous lesions and therefore conduct a careful examination and get necessary investigations. Prompt diagnosis and treatment will have its bearing on the eventual outcome.
在无原发性肿瘤病史的情况下，肾细胞癌（RCC）皮肤转移的细胞诊断很困难，因为它可能与其他透明细胞肿瘤混淆。我们在此报告一例RCC皮肤转移的细胞诊断病例，该患者9年前在其他中心接受了肾切除术，但他没有任何相关记录。临床医生应意识到出现皮肤病变的患者存在原发性内脏恶性肿瘤的可能性，因此要进行仔细检查并开展必要的检查。及时诊断和治疗将对最终结果产生影响。
