Abstract:
Pumonary metastases from renal cell carcinoma are common, but metastases in the large brohchi are uncommon and recurrence of renal cell carcinoma 10 years after primary resection is rare case. When endobronchial metastasi s do present they usually simulate, clinically and radiologically, bronchial carcinoma. We report a 67-year-old man with endobronchial metastasis of renal cell carcinoma 10 years after radical nephrectomy with a brief review of the literature.
