Labial metastasis of renal neoplasia - A diagnostic challenge
INTRODUCTION: Cutaneous spread of solid visceral metastasis is very unusual presentation, usually in breast, lung, colon, ovarian carcinomas, and malignant melanoma. Less than 5% of cases of cutaneous spread are from renal neoplasms. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We present the case of a 48-year-old woman w...

Sumario: | INTRODUCTION: Cutaneous spread of solid visceral metastasis is very unusual presentation, usually in breast, lung, colon, ovarian carcinomas, and malignant melanoma. Less than 5% of cases of cutaneous spread are from renal neoplasms. PRESENTATION OF CASE: We present the case of a 48-year-old woman with a large lower lip tumor whose anatomopathological analysis of the lesion led us to identify a Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (ccRCC). DISCUSSION: The clinical manifestations of the ccRCC can be mild, generating a late diagnosis through metastasis of primary neoplasia. Their presentations can be varied, as described in this report. CONCLUSION: The knowledge of the different types of presentation of CCCR metastases can assist in decision making, but the progression of staging often only allows palliative measures. |
