Abstract

Late metastases of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) are quite common. However, metastases in the pancreas are rare.

The follow up in patients with a history of RCC should be lifelong. Considering the low response of RCC and its metastases to oncological treatment, pancreatic resection is a safe method with a low rate of complications in patients with RCC metastases limited only to the pancreas and detected in time.
