Abstract

Pancreatic metastasis of kidney cancer is very rare, accounting for less than 0.25 to 3% of cases. The detection of metastasis is often fortuitous in surveillance after renal cancer resection. We report a case of pancreatic metastases of renal adenocarcinoma. This observation emphasizes the advantage of the radiological assessment for early diagnosis, which allows to discuss a curative surgical act which seems to be the only treatment able to prolong the survival of the patients
