“…RCC is considered as a tumor with a high metastatic potential: one third of the cases already have synchronous metastases at the time of diagnosis, and another 30% will develop metachronous disease, in some cases, more than a decade after the nephrectomy [7,8]. According to some authors, the most common distant sites for RCC metastases are the lunges, bones, liver, lymph nodes, adrenal gland and the brain [7,9,10]. In addition, pancreas, thyroid, skeletal muscle, skin, or soft tissue are potential rare sites for RCC metastases [3,11].…”

“…Moreover, as reported in one of our cases, digestive involvement of RCC metastasis includes gastrointestinal tract (stomach, duodenum, colon), ampulla of Vater and gallbladder in addition to the pancreas. Metastases can occur simultaneously in GI sites, as in our case, or at different timepoints during follow-up [ 20 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 , 48 , 49 , 50 , 51 , 52 ].…”

“…In around 35% of RCC cases, the synchronous metastasis will be present at the time of diagnosis of the primary RCC and about 30% may develop metachronous disease leading to 10% of late diagnosis [ 11 ].…”
