Abstract EN
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) accounts for 80–85% of all primary renal neoplasms.
Although RCC can metastasize to any organ, gastric metastases from RCC are exceedingly rare.
A 67-year-old male presented with melena and acute blood loss anemia.
The patient had a history of RCC that had been treated with a radical nephrectomy.
He had a recent myocardial infarction and was receiving double antiplatelet therapy.
After hemodynamic stabilization, esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed a polypoid mass in the gastric fundus.
The mass was excised.
Histological and immunohistochemical evaluation were consistent with clear cell RCC.
The polypoid lesion is consistent with a late solitary metastasis.
