title: Late presentation of solitary jejunal metastasis from renal cell carcinoma.
abstract: Haematogenous metastases to the small bowel are a rare occurrence, usually from malignant melanoma or bronchogenic carcinoma. There are occasional reports of other primary tumours presenting with small bowel involvement as the first evidence of metastases. We describe a case of intraluminal jejunal metastasis from a renal cell carcinoma, occurring 10 years after the original nephrectomy.
