title: Two patients with symptomatic renal metastases.
abstract: Two patients with symptoms referable to the urinary tract who were found to have renal metastatic disease are presented. The first case illustrates typical radiological features of metastatic malignancy affecting the kidney. In the second case angiographic features were suggestive of a grossly dilated renal collecting system conflicting with the sonographic appearances of a solid renal mass. At surgery the pelvicalyceal system and proximal ureter were found to be grossly distended with an intraluminal metastasis.
