Abstract:
The most common sites of metastases originating from primary renal clear cell carcinoma are bones and lungs. The authors present a rare case of the tumor that metastasized to the diaphragm. Both lesions, the primary in the kidney and the secondary in the diaphragm, were detected occasionally during the ultrasound examination of the right pleural cavity and abdominal cavity.
