In this paper, we describe a case of a 73-year old female with late skeletal muscle metastases from a clear-type renal cell carcinoma 8 years after total nephrectomy. The metastases were located in the right femoral quadriceps, in the sartorius muscle and adductor magnus muscle. A full clinical work-up was performed with blood examinations, radiological and pathological assessment. A complete surgical resection with a wide margin was performed for all lesions, and the final pathological report deposed for metastatic renal carcinoma clear-type cells. In this case report, we discuss the crucial rule of accurate radiological and pathological assessment and aggressive surgical management.

We present a case of Xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis mimicking as a renal cell carcinoma. This was an elderly lady who presented with pyonephrosis due to urolithiasis. On evaluation she was found to have a space occupying mass in the right kidney. Further investigations revealed an enhancing tumor with renal vein thrombus and paracaval lymphadenopathy. Subsequent histopathology showed evidence of XGPN with no malignancy. This case report highlights the fact there are a number of imaging and clinical overlaps in the diagnosis, assessment and management of this entity.

We presented the clinical data of one patient with renal cell carcinoma associated with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura in this case report. We reported a 56-year-old man who presented with petechiae and ecchymoses. Laboratory studies showed the platelet count of 2 × 109/L and an abdominal computed tomography (CT) scan revealed tumors in the right renal. There were purpura on the legs and cough without abdominal pain and melena at this time. Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura was diagnosed according to the clinical symptoms and laboratory test. The patient received radical nephrectomy for renal carcinoma, and his idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura was cured after the surgery. Pathological biopsy confirmed it was renal clear cell carcinoma. The patient has been followed up for more than 3 months after surgery, and the ecchymoses had not been recurred and the patient’s thrombocytopenia was recovered. Idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura associated with kidney cancer is rare. The patient in this case report was treated with radical nephrectomy, and the effectiveness of idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura was satisfactory.
