Renal cell carcinoma is an aggressive urological malignancy. Metastases from the lesion are encountered late in the course of the disease and most often involve the lung and the liver. It is rare that metastatic lesions are the primary presentation of an otherwise clinically silent renal cell carcinoma. We report a case who presented with calvarial and cutaneous lesions which were later found to be metastases from an asymptomatic renal cell carcinoma.
肾细胞癌是一种侵袭性泌尿系统恶性肿瘤。该病变的转移在疾病进程中出现较晚,最常累及肺和肝。转移性病变作为原本临床上无症状的肾细胞癌的主要表现较为罕见。我们报告一例以颅骨和皮肤病变为表现的病例,这些病变后来被发现是来自无症状肾细胞癌的转移灶。
