Lee, Lee, Kim, Shim, Suh, and Kim: Metastatic Renal Cell Carcinoma to Unusual Locations: A Case Report

Abstract

Renal cell carcinoma is a tumor that commonly occurs with distant metastases and typically metastasizes to the following distant sites, listed in order of descending frequency: the lung and mediastinum, bone, liver, contralateral kidney or adrenal gland, and brain. However, metastases to the face, skin, and skeletal muscle are extremely rare. We report here a case of a metastatic renal cell carcinoma involving the face, skeletal muscles and skin simultaneously.
