Cystic Duct Metastasis from Renal Cell Carcinoma.
Internal Medicine 2018 January 16
We herein report a 69-year-old man who underwent right nephrectomy 1 year previously to remove renal cell carcinoma (RCC). On our examinations, contrast-enhanced computed tomography revealed a tumor with intensive early enhancement near the cystic duct of the gallbladder. Endoscopic ultrasonography showed a low echoic mass in the cystic duct. We diagnosed the patient's condition as cystic duct metastasis from RCC and performed open cholecystectomy. Histopathology indicated a metastatic tumor of clear cell RCC in the cystic duct wall. In patients with a medical history of RCC, hypervascular lesions suggest the possibility of metastasis. Therefore, detailed imaging examinations should be performed.
