title: Renal papillae metastasis of sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma.
abstract: Colonic carcinoma metastatic to the kidney is very rare. The usual anatomical localization for secondary renal neoplasms is the renal cortex. We report a case of sigmoid colon carcinoma with unilateral kidney metastasis localized only in the renal papillae without obvious metastatic disease.
