Vaginal metastasis of a clear renal cell carcinoma

Remember that kidney cancer is a disease whose incidence is increasing due to increased use of additional imaging tests, which is changing the way of diagnosis, making the classic clinical syndrome synonymous with advanced illness.

We report the case of a patient with a right renal tumor with renal vein involvement that in the natural course of the disease showed a vaginal metastasis of clear renal cell carcinoma, which was treated with surgical excision.

This case is a clear example of how unpredictable is the clinical evolution of this disease and how little we know about the way of dissemination.

Local excision, with or without radiotherapy, or radiotherapy alone are recommended in cases of unique metastasis after nephrectomy.
