Contralateral solitary testis metastasis antedating renal cell carcinoma: a case-report and review.

Abstract:

:A 56-year-old Caucasian smoker male patient underwent right orchiectomy and spermatic cord resection for intrascrotal transilluminating mass. Histology findings suggested diagnosis of metastasis from Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC). After positive CT-scan for primary neoplasm, total left nephrectomy was accomplished. Patient referred to our institution and started interferon immunotherapy; nowadays, after 21 months is disease free and in good health. We have reviewed and summarized the international literature regarding testicular metastasis from renal cell carcinoma; this is the first case of histology-proved-RCC ("clear cell" type)-solitary-contralateral-testicular-recurrence antedating clinical evidence of the primary neoplasm, which underwent orchiectomy before nephrectomy.

  • Altered calcium metabolism in patients on long-term bisphosphonate therapy for metastatic breast cancer.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Bisphosphonates (BPs) are considered the standard of care in metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients with bone metastases. Because the survival for these patients may be prolonged compared with those patients with visceral metastases, they may be prescribed BPs for several years. The effects of this long-ter...
