Abstract

Renal cell carcinoma is the most common urological malignancy having aggressive and unpredictable metastatic potential. In the available literature, a number of cases of isolated metastasis to the spine from renal cell carcinoma have been described, but there is a dearth of literature regarding a case in which symptoms from the metastasis of a renal cell carcinoma preceded the detection of the primary tumor. We present a unique case of our knowledge in which a young patient presents with lumbar vertebra collapse for which he was managed and subsequently diagnosed with renal clear cell carcinoma with spinal metastasis.
