Solitary Renal Metastasis 23 Years After Extirpation of A Bronchial Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma

Abstract: In a 47-year-old man left nephrectomy was performed in 1982 because of a solitary metastasis arising from a bronchial adenoid cystic carcinoma which had been extirpated 23 years previously, in 1959. Whole-body CT scanning one year after nephrectomy disclosed no local recurrence or further metastasis. The importance of long follow-up after surgery for adenoid cystic carcinoma is emphasized.

“…2 Data from the English literature (Table 1) report 35 well-described cases of renal involvement from lung cancer. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] The median age at presentation was 57 years, with a male sex predominance (male to female ratio, 9:1) and a latency of presentation from the diagnosis of the primary lung lesion of 30 months. In 5 cases, the renal involvement was present before the lung primaries and in 3 cases both were discovered at the same time.…”

“…Nevertheless, kidney metastasis of ACC is extremely rare. In 1984, Ladefoged et al 5 first described metastatic ACC of the kidney, 23 years after right pneumonectomy for ACC of lung 5 . To our knowledge, only 11 cases of ACC metastatic to the kidney have been described in detail in the English literature to date.…”
