Abstract Background: Renal Cell carcinoma usually presents metastasis at the diagnosis and the most common sites include lung, bones, liver, and brain in decreasing order. Metastasis to the large intestine is very uncommon and few cases are reported in the literature. Case Presentation: We present a case of post nephrectomy renal cell carcinoma who presented to our institution with signs of anemia and on further investigations found to be having metastatic lesions of renal cell carcinoma in the intestine, peritoneum, and abdominal wall. Conclusion: We hypothesize that due to recent advances in the treatment of renal cell carcinoma, the patient's survival rate increased and this leads to atypical presentations of the known diseases. Through this case report, we stress the importance of vigilant evaluation for intestinal metastasis when the patient presents with gastrointestinal bleeding and a history of renal cell carcinoma regardless of the time since nephrectomy.

Because of the asymptomatic natural history of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), by the time a diagnosis is made, metastatic disease is present in about one third of the cases. Thus, the overall survival of patients with RCC remains poor. Ultimately up to 50% of patients with RCC will develop metastases. Metastatic lesions from RCC are usually observed in the lungs, liver or bone. Metastases to the brain or the skin from RCC are rare. Here we present a patient diagnosed with RCC, found to have no evidence of metastases at the time of nephrectomy, who presented two years later with metastases to the scalp. We review the literature of patients with this rare site of metastasis and outline the overall prognosis of this lesion compared to other site of metastases from RCC.

Introduction: Nephrocolic fistula is a pathological connection between the kidney and colon. Percutaneous tumour ablation therapy is a rare cause of iatrogenic nephrocolic fistula in the literature. Case Presentation: Interventional radiologists should be careful, especially in patients with repeated ablation. Granulation of tissue may lead to unexpected results secondary to tissue fragility and impedance changes. Conclusion: In addition, we should keep in mind that there is decreasing hydro dissection benefit in cases with the previous ablation. As far as we know, this is the first case report of an iatrogenic ephrocolic fistula after microwave ablation for recurrence renal cell carcinoma.

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.

The authors report a case of a solitary thyroid metastasis in a 62-year-old woman. The clinical history of the patient and the histologic findings are consistent with a renal origin of the tumor. Gli Autori riportano un caso di metastasi unica tiroidea in una donna di 62 anni. I dati anamnestici ed i reperti anatomo-patologici suggeriscono una origine renale della neoplasia.
