title: [Two cases of thyroid metastases from renal cell carcinoma].
abstract: The identification and diagnosis of thyroid metastases from renal cell carcinoma are rare in living patients in spite of more frequent incidence during autopsy. We reported two cases of thyroid metastases from renal cell carcinoma. In both cases, histological examination revealed metastasis from renal cell carcinoma and negative immunohistological stain for thyroglobulin ruled out primary thyroid carcinoma.
