Bone is reported to be one of the most common sites of metastasis. Acrometastasis is an extremely rare situation and accounts for approximately 0.1% of all metastatic lesions to the skeleton. Here, we present a case of acrometastasis in a 55-year-old woman who presented with a 3-month history of atraumatic right ring fingertip pain and swelling and was subsequently diagnosed with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. This report highlights the importance of clinical suspicion of malignancy at unusual sites in the setting of non-resolving symptoms.
据报道,骨是最常见的转移部位之一。肢端转移是一种极其罕见的情况,约占所有骨骼转移瘤的0.1%。在此,我们报告一例55岁女性的肢端转移病例,该患者有3个月的无创伤性右手环指尖疼痛和肿胀病史,随后被诊断为转移性肾细胞癌。本报告强调了在症状持续不缓解的情况下,对不寻常部位的恶性肿瘤进行临床怀疑的重要性。
