“…However, pre-mortem diagnosis of renal metastasis is very rare. Some reports have described such cases and those patients usually had pulmonary metastases before renal involvement (3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11). We describe a case of metastatic osteosarcoma in the kidneys without lung metastasis and present a review of the literature.…”

Symptomatic renal metastasis is very rare in osteosarcoma. A few reported cases had pulmonary metastases before renal involvement. We present a case of metastatic renal osteosarcoma without pulmonary involvement. The patient presented with hematuria 8 years after initial treatment of osteosarcoma of the left distal femur. Computed tomography revealed a bilateral calcified renal mass. The patient died of disease 4 months after detection of the metastases. At autopsy, metastatic osteosarcoma was discovered in the bilateral kidney, both renal veins, inferior vena cava and right atrium. There was no pulmonary involvement. We emphasize the need for renal evaluation for the follow-up of patients with osteosarcoma.

“…The abdomen is not routinely evaluated. Before the development of ultrasonography and CT, renal lesions in osteosarcoma were detected by intravenous pyelogram or, rarely, as areas of increased calcification on abdominal radiographs [16]. Unfortunately, in contrast with primary renal osteosarcoma, metastatic lesions usually do not possess enough calcification to be seen on simple radiographs [17].…”

This paper discusses a rare case of renal metastatic osteosarcoma. A 25-year-old man with a history of metastatic osteosarcoma involving his right kidney was referred to our institution for treatment. He was managed with chemotherapy. An exhaustive review of the English literature pertaining to this disease was performed. To our knowledge, this case represents only the sixteenth. The literature suggests that the incidence of renal involvement in osteosarcoma is significant and that the treatment should be multidisciplinary in such patients.

“…The described cases of atypical sites include the pleura, pericardium, kidney, adrenal gland and the brain. At autopsy, the most frequent osteosarcoma metastases sites are the lungs (95%), bones (50%) and kidneys (12%) [ 4 ] . All the reported cases of renal metastases from osteosarcoma have generally exhibited aggressive behaviour and a poor prognosis.…”

“…Rarely do they arise from gastrointestinal tumours, genitourinary tumours, melanoma and sarcoma, especially osteosarcoma [ 3 ] . The possibility of renal metastases should be considered if a patient with known malignancy exhibits hematuria or flank pain and renal masses are seen on imaging [ 4 ] .…”

Calcified renal metastases from osteosarcoma are extremely rare. We present a case of a young female with osteosarcoma of the right ulna who developed late recurrence in the form of large metastatic calcified renal and pulmonary lesions. Review of the literature suggests that osteosarcoma metastases of the kidneys usually exhibit aggressive behaviour with poor prognosis. A brief review of the calcified renal metastases including the index case is presented.
