metastatic lesions represent 1-8% of all malignant tumors of the mouth and jaws, which are regarded as rare sites of metastases from different primary tumors. metastases in mouth soft tissue are also rare, and within these it is on the gums where they more frequently occur. primary tumors which metastasize to the mouth are most commonly: lung, breast, and kidney. clear cell carcinoma is the mos...

the paranasal sinuses are known to be a rare location for metastasis. renal cell carcinoma (rcc) is the most frequent primary tumor to metastasize to the sinonasal region, followed by lung and breast cancer. in particular, clear cell type rcc, which represents approximately 85% of rccs, is characterized by early metastasis, and it sometimes spreads to unusual sites (1, 2). metastatic tumors in ...

metastatic   tumors in the nose and paranasal sinuses are infrequent. the origin of this metastatic tumors are often renal cell carcinoma. we present one case of metastatic renal cell carcinoma   to the nose and paranasal sinuses ,4 years after initial nephrectomy and diagnosis of stage t1n0m0 clear cell carcinoma. the patient complained of nasal obstruction and recurrent epistaxis   who was tr...

Introduction: Metastatic lesions of the oral cavity are extremely rare, accounting for approximately 1% of all malignant oral tumors. The most common primary sources of metastatic tumors in the oral region are, from the most to the least common, the breast, lung, kidney, bone, and colon. Renal cell carcinoma accounts for nearly 3% of all adult malignancies. It usually metastasizes to the lungs,...

metastases of internal tumors to the oral cavity are unusual and in most cases involve maxilla and mandible. metastases to the gingival soft tissue are extremely rare. reporting a new clinical case of renal cell carcinoma (rcc) metastasis with an unusual site. metastatic involvement of gingival tissue with renal cell carcinoma is an extremely rare clinical event. it is usually associated with i...

Thyroid gland metastatic tumors are rare in clinical practice. Clear cell RCC is one of common metastatic tumors to thyroid. We here reported a case of incidentally found clear cell renal carcinoma metastasis to the thyroid gland 3 years after nephrectomy, in the thyroidectomy procedure performed for the patient due to the thyroid enlargement caused by multinodular goiter. A 65-year-old Iranian...

pituitary gland metastasis was seen in elderly patients, and the incidence of pituitary metastasis is 1% to 4% of all cancer patients. renal cell carcinoma is a primary malignancy in only 2.6% of pituitary metastases. we reported a 50-year-old man with pituitary metastasis from renal cell carcinoma that had signs of diabetes insipidus. he had multiple lesions in both lungs, and bone scan involv...

background and aims: p504s (amacr) is a mitochondrial enzyme expressed in renal cell carcinoma. some of immunohistochemical markers in renal cell tumors are independent prognostic factor and show relation with histologic grading. amacr expression increases with higher histological grading in different tumors; however, in rcc it is not obvious. in this study, we tried to investigate if any relat...

Background and Aims: P504S (AMACR) is a mitochondrial enzyme expressed in renal cell carcinoma. Some of immunohistochemical markers in renal cell tumors are independent prognostic factor and show relation with histologic grading. AMACR expression increases with higher histological grading in different tumors; however, in RCC it is not obvious. In this study, we tried to investigate if ...
