We report a case of renal cell adenocarcinoma (T2-G3) metastatic to the stomach in a patient who underwent a left radical nephrectomy and presented hematemesis and melena two weeks postoperatively. We were prompted to report this case because metastasis to the stomach is rare and the literature is scant. Despite treatment by radical surgery, the short disease-free period following nephrectomy, the high histological grade (G3) and the aggressive nature of the tumor have resulted in a short survival.
