Since 2006, tyrosine kinase inhibitors and anti-angiogenic drugs have revolutionized the treatment of metastatic renal cell carcinoma by improving progression-free survival and overall survival. The prognostic factors in metastatic renal cell carcinoma treated by targeted therapy include anatomical, histological, clinical, biological, and molecular parameters. The accuracy of these prognostic factors are not high when applied alone. A renal cancer prognostic system that combines all these prognostic factors can improve the risk assessment of renal cancer and prognosis prediction, and thus guide clinical decision-making.

Metastatic renal cell carcinoma is renowned for its potency to spread to almost any organ of the body; however metastasis to the gall bladder is very rare. We present a case of a 48 year old man who initially demonstrated renal cell carcinoma, and in who gallbladder metastasis was later detected. A review of the literature revealed only a small number of cases of renal cell carcinoma metastasizing to the gallbladder, and these were primary found upon necropsy. Gall-bladder metastasis in this case was detected clinically.
