Popis: The main metastatic sites of renal cancer are the lungs, bone, liver, and brain. Dissemination of clear cell renal carcinoma to the rectum is very rare, with only a few sporadic cases published in the literature. The clinical presentation is usually dominated by lower gastrointestinal haemorrhage. We report the 5th case in the literature of a rectal metastasis of clear cell renal carcinoma, revealed by a lower gastrointestinal haemorrhage occurring 8 years after the initial nephrectomy.
