  • Title: [Synchronous metastasis of renal adenocarcinoma to gallbladder and ipsilateral adrenal gland].
    Author: Guerreiro González R, García Diez F, Gonzáles del Valle C, Izquierdo García F, Salas Valien JS.
    Journal: Arch Esp Urol; 1994; 47(1):78-80. PubMed ID: 8192507.
    Abstract:
    Herein we describe a patient in whom a renal mass had been detected. He had no previous urological symptoms or signs, but had undergone laryngectomy in 1989 for well-differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of the glottic region. The radiological and ultrasound evaluations disclosed a right renal mass, a mass in the ipsilateral adrenal gland and a polypoid mass in the gallbladder. The patient underwent radical nephrectomy, adrenalectomy and cholecystectomy. The surgical specimens of the gallbladder and adrenal gland showed histological evidence of clear cell carcinoma with the same characteristics as those of the primary renal tumor.
