Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) is notorious for its unpredictable dissemination patterns involving both lymphatic and haematogenous route without a clear-cut preponderance for any. Unlike other intra-abdominal malignancies like colorectal carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma is often known to metastasize to distant sites even after a confident and unsuspecting curative resection or often as the primary presentation constantly adding and agitating our presentation patterns for this sneaky tumour. Presented below is a case of such an unsuspecting female patient. She was referred from the orthopaedic OPD to surgery OPD with a right clavicular swelling which was histopathologically examined and diagnosed as a metastatic renal cell carcinoma following which she was diagnosed with right renal cell carcinoma.
肾细胞癌(RCC)因其不可预测的播散方式而声名狼藉,它可通过淋巴和血行途径播散,且没有明显的优势途径。与其他腹部恶性肿瘤如结直肠癌不同,肾细胞癌即使在进行了可靠且未被怀疑的根治性切除术后,也常常会转移至远处部位,或者常常作为首发表现,不断增加并扰乱我们对这种隐匿性肿瘤的诊治模式。以下介绍的是一位未被怀疑的女性患者的病例。她从骨科门诊被转诊至外科门诊,右锁骨出现肿胀,经组织病理学检查后被诊断为转移性肾细胞癌,随后确诊为右肾细胞癌。
