We report a case where resection was performed for pancreatic metastasis from renal cell carcinoma 21 years after nephrectomy. A 72-year-old man had undergone total gastrectomy with distal pancreatomy and splenectomy for gastric cancer, and right nephrectomy for primary renal cell carcinoma in 1993. Incidentally, a CT scan performed in 2014 revealed a tumor in the head of the pancreas. Enhanced MRI suggested that the tumor contained some fat tissue. The tumor in the pancreatic body had sharp margins; therefore, we performed subtotal pancreatectomy. The tumor was considered pancreatic metastasis from renal cell carcinoma. Pathological findings indicated clear-cell type carcinoma(G1-G2), which is very similar to renal cell carcinoma. We diagnosed pancreatic metastasis from renal cell carcinoma. The patient has remained well, with no recurrence 20 months after the pancreatectomy. |
