Article Abstract
In this paper, we describe a case of a 73-year old female with late skeletal muscle metastases from a clear-type renal cell carcinoma 8 years after total nephrectomy. The metastases were located in the right femoral quadriceps, in the sartorius muscle and adductor magnus muscle. A full clinical work-up was performed with blood examinations, radiological and pathological assessment. A complete surgical resection with a wide margin was performed for all lesions, and the final pathological report deposed for metastatic renal carcinoma clear-type cells. In this case report, we discuss the crucial rule of accurate radiological and pathological assessment and aggressive surgical management.
