Pancreatic metastasis of renal cell carcinoma: case report
Pancreatic metastases account for 2% of pancreatic malignancies and are rare. Metastases to the pancreas originate from many organ systems in the body but occur more frequently from the lung, breast, kidney, and gastrointestinal tract. It may occur years after the treatment of the primary tumor. Symptoms such as abdominal pain, weight loss, and jaundice are present at presentation, but it can also be detected on radiologic imaging without any symptoms. In this article, we present a case of RCC metastasis to the pancreas detected 16 years after renal cell carcinoma (RCC) treatment that was found to be incidental and detected by EUS FNAB.
