ABSTRACT
Acrometastasis is rare and accounts for 0.1% of all metastasis. Renal cell carcinoma accounts for only 10% of this infrequent site. It is usually the late manifestation of a disseminated tumor, but may also be the primary manifestation of an occult cancer. Clinically, it may mimic benign tumors or nonneoplastic osteoarthritic conditions, thus resulting in misdiagnosis and improper treatment. We reported a case of acrometastasis in a renal cell carcinoma in a 76-year-old man who had been diagnosed with a progressed renal cell carcinoma with metastasis of the lung and brain.
