Renal mass in a patient with invasive lobular adenocarcinoma

By: X. Mortiers MD, H. Vandeursen MD, PhD, T. Adams MD, T. Van den Mooter MD

SUMMARY

Breast cancer often metastasises to bone, lymph nodes, liver and lung. In this case report, we present a 75-year-old woman with a suspicious mammography and ultrasound of the breast who had a synchronous painless renal lesion. On computed tomography, the renal mass was suspected of being a primary lesion of the renal pelvis, but anatomopathological examination of the nephro-ureterectomy specimen revealed that it was a metastatic deposit of invasive lobular adenocarcinoma of the breast.
