[Renal cancer presenting as parietal-temporal cerebral metastasis and a persistent fever].
The authors report the clinical case of a 48-year-old man presenting with persistent fever, in whom a brain tumour was detected. Histological examination of the resection specimen revealed metastasis from a renal cell carcinoma. The primary tumour was discovered on the right kidney which was then resected. The early postoperative course was favourable, but no long-term follow-up is available.
