Though RCC is known to spread hematogenously, isolated RCC metastasis to the stomach is a rare event. In this article, we describe the clinical course of a patient who developed a pancreatic recurrence of RCC and 1 year later a gastric recurrence of RCC treated 10 years ago with a resection and interleukin-2 (IL-2). Accumulating evidence indicates that metastatic involvement of the pancreas and stomach should be suspected in any patient with a history of RCC who presents with gastrointestinal symptoms even 10 years after RCC resection and immunotherapy.展开更多

The patientwas successfully treated with a first generation therapy,CHOP modified regimen (cyclophosphamide 600mg/m^2 intravenously on d 1, epirubicin 55mg/m^2 intravenously on d 1, vincristine 1.2 mg/m^2 intravenously on d 1,prednisone 60 mg/m^2 on d 1-5), and a complete response was achieved. The (18)F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography was used to assess the therapy outcome. A brief review of literature is provided.展开更多
