Clear Cell Carcinoma with Neck Metastasis: A Case Report: OAJBS Publishers
Clear Cell Carcinoma with Neck Metastasis: A Case Report by Fred Delgado Ricardo* in Open Access Journal of Biomedical Science (OAJBS)
Clear
cell carcinoma represents only 3% of all adult malignant tumors worldwide and
when we include single metastases to the neck, we find an incidence of only
0.09% -0.4%. Only isolated anecdotal cases have been reported in the
literature. The objective of presenting this case is to describe the
clinicopathological manifestations, as well as the diagnosis of metastases to a
very rare site in clear cell renal carcinoma. We present the case of a
64-year-old female patient, of Guatemalan nationality, with a personal history of
kidney stones, acute kidney injury 2 years ago, bilateral grade III venous
insufficiency, chronic hypokalemias for 15 years and a family history of breast
cancer (mother), cervical cancer (grandmother), pulmonary fibrosis (father).
Currently, the treatment of clear cell renal cell carcinoma metastases is
primarily palliative; however, there are new molecular targeted agents that
have shown promising results as adjunctive therapy.
