    Abstract:
    A 52-year-old man consulted our hospital with a right abdominal mass. Imaging diagnosis revealed a 10.5-cm right renal tumor and bilateral adrenal masses (7 cm on the left side and 2.5 cm on the right). A radical nephrectomy and bilateral adrenalectomy demonstrated renal cell carcinoma with metastases to bilateral adrenal glands. Despite prophylactic treatment with interferon-alpha, a swollen left cervical lymph node and a left renal mass, which seemed to be metastatic lesions, developed respectively 6 and 33 months postoperative. He is alive with disease at 40 months.
