[Renal metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma].
OBJECTIVE
To report the case of a solitary renal metastasis secondary to hepatocellular carcinoma.


METHODS
We report the case of a 51 year old patient who on abdominal ultrasonography was revealed a left renal tumour and a hepatic mass incidentally. A TAC showed the left renal tumor measuring 17 cm in size, possible involvement of left renal vein and a tumour mass in the right lobe of the liver. A TAC guided fine needle punction aspiration biopsy demonstrated a malignant hepatic lesion compatible with hepatocarcinoma, and malignant renal cells compatible with renal or adrenal carcinoma. Left radical nephrectomy and right hepatectomy was performed.


RESULTS
Histopathologic study confirmed the diagnosis of moderately differentiated trabecular hepatocarcinoma with lymph node and left renal metastasis.
