Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is highly metastasizing. Metastasis may occur synchronously with the primary tumor or in various organs many years after the treatment of the primary RCC. However, isolated contralateral adrenal metastasis (CAM) following the treatment of primary RCC is quite rare. The present study is a case report of a 58-year-old female patient diagnosed with CAM who had been surgically treated 5 years earlier for primary RCC.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
