“…Lieder et al (93) demonstrated a rate of metastatic disease to the head and neck from RCC of 3.3% (22/671 patients) of all patients they treated with RCC, which they felt was sufficient enough to recommend for neck to be included in staging investigations for RCC. Liou et al (101) in a systematic review found a much higher rate of 14-16%, and so this advocates this recommendation even further. Crucially, metastases to the head and neck can result in severe morbidity and mortality involving airway obstruction, haemorrhage and airway obstruction, and for this reason both screening and treatment can be advocated.…”

Background: Oligometastatic disease in head and neck cancer is a new entity that is beginning to gather significant attention. It is a concept that is defined as <5 lesions with control of the primary lesion. Methods: In this paper, we explore the literature for the presentation and management of patients presenting with oligometastatic disease in the head and neck from non-head and neck primaries. Results: The most common infraclavicular primary tumours to metastasise to the head and neck are breast, lung and renal carcinomas. Management of these oligometastatic lesions is currently very variable and surgery and/or ablative therapies can in fact be associated with good survival outcomes or locoregional control compared to patients with widespread metastatic disease. Conclusion: The recommendations in this paper will help towards establishing clear guidelines in the future for surgical and ablative therapies for these patients.

“…The median overall survival period was 36 months after diagnosis of metastasis, increasing to 60 months in those who underwent complete metastasectomy, which was significantly higher than in those who underwent incomplete metastasectomy or no metastasectomy. 30 In another study, half of patients with RCC metastasized to the oral cavity died within 1 year. 31…”

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the most common tumor of the kidney. Although RCC often metastasizes to other organs, metastasis to the head and neck region is rare, and metastasis to the mandible is very unusual. Given the fact that metastasis of primary neoplasms is not always predictable, it is essential to rule out metastatic carcinoma in jaw lesions. We herein report a rare presentation of metastasis of RCC to the mandible, in which the metastatic lesion in the oral cavity was found first, followed by the primary lesion, in a 22-year-old girl who suffered from pain in the left temporomandibular joint on mouth opening and hypoesthesia of the left chin, left lower lip, and left lower gum.

“…There is no common consensus on how to treat such patients.The treatment depends on characteristics of tumour and patient status.Such as performance status,patient's choice,risk factors,nature of metastasis [8].The treatment of such metastases include metastasectomy whenever possible and palliative chemotherapy,radiotherapy.Surgery is recommended as the first option of treatment if there is no other organ involvement.Tzyy et al showed in their metaanalysis that complete metastasectomy from head and neck region has superiority to incomplete metastasectomy and no metastasectomy.The median overall survival was significantly higher in complete metastasectomy patients [8].…”

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC), is the most common kidney cancer, that accounts for approximately 90% of all adult renal malignancies with 30% of patients presenting with metastasis at initial diagnosis.There are several reports of metastases developing after 10-20 years even if curative nephrectomy has been made. Clear cell (60%-75%), papillary (10%-15%), chromophobe (5%), and collecting duct carcinoma are well characterized subtypes of RCC.Renal cell carcinoma mainly metastasizes to the lungs,the bones,the liver,the lymph nodes and brain.Metastasis to the head and neck region is rare.In this case report we present a tonsil metastasis after 5 years of nephrectomy.Surgery with histopathological examination confirmed that metastasis of clear cell carcinom.The patient was successfully treated by surgery and referred to oncology.Later he was out of our follow-up.
