Abstract
- Renal cell carcinoma metastasis to the parotid gland after tumor nephrectomy is extremely rare. We report a case of solitary parotid metastasis from clear cell renal cell carcinoma in a 64-year-old man, who presented it 10 years after primary treatment. Superficial parotidectomy and deep lobe mass removal with preservation of the facial nerve was performed. The patient is currently being followed up regularly with no additional metastasis observed for 13 months.
