Adult intussusceptions due to metastatic intestinal-tumor are very rare. A 71-year-old man with an intussusception due to intestinal metastasis of renal carcinoma is reported. To our knowledge, this is the third such patient in the Japanese literature. The patient was suffered from an intestinal obstruction six months after his renal carcinoma was detected. Laparotomy was performed, revealing that he had developed a jejunojejunal intussusception due to metastasis of renal carcinoma. The early diagnosis of metastatic intestinal tumor is difficult. It is important to bear in mind that patients with malignant tumor may already have metastasis.

We report a case of ileal metastasis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) in a 58-year-old male. The patient had a history of radical nephrectomy for a right RCC, and 2 years later underwent bilateral partial pneumonectomy for metastatic disease of the lung. A period of 1 year after the partial pneumonectomy, he developed bloody stools. Colonoscopy revealed an ileocolic intussusception caused by a polypoid tumor in the ileum, and the tumor was observed to be protruding into the ascending colon. The histological features of the tumor biopsy specimen confirmed the diagnosis of metastatic RCC. Metastasis of RCC in the small bowel is a rare disease clinically. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case with ileal metastasis of RCC, which has been definitively diagnosed by colonoscopy.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) may metastasize to almost any organ, but it is unlikely to be a direct cause of intussusception. We report a case of double enteric intussusceptions caused by metastatic RCC in a 64-year-old man. The patient presented with intermittent abdominal pain and diarrhea 11 years after undergoing a radical nephrectomy. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) showed two enhanced masses with the "target" sign, suggesting enteric intussusceptions. We performed partial enterectomy, and histological examination confirmed that the tumors had originated from RCC. To our knowledge, this is the first report of metastases from RCC manifesting as synchronous intraluminal polypoid tumors serving as the lead points of two intussusceptions in the small intestine. Thus, the possibility of multiple tumor metastases in the small intestine, with or without intussusceptions, should be considered in patients with recurrent RCC.

Small bowel metastases from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) are very rare. Clinical presentation includes obstruction, bleeding, intussusception and rarely perforation. We report a case of a 48-year-old female presenting a jejunal intussusception due to intestinal metastasis from RCC. To our knowledge, there are only a few such cases reported in the literature (seven cases). However, if considered in the total summary of reported cases with small bowel metastases from RCC, intussusception is a probable cause.

Malignant tumors of the kidney represent rare primary intestinal metastases. They occur in 4% of cases. These intestinal metastases are mainly the small intestine; colon is a rare achievement. We report a case of small intestine metastatic of a tubulo-pappilary carcinoma revealed by a multiple intussusception a year after nephrectomy. The cross-sectional imaging (ultrasound and CT) was the gold standard for positive diagnosis of intussusception and the nature of secondary underlying tumor. Intestinal metastases of renal cell carcinoma sometimes occur many years after nephrectomy. On imaging, metastases simulate all tumor aspects.

The lung, the liver, the bone tissue and the brain are the most frequent sites for renal cell carcinoma metastasis. Small bowel metastasis from renal cell carcinoma is rare, with only few cases published. We report the case of ileal metastasis from operated kidney cancer revealed by ileocolic intussusception and causing intestinal obstruction in a 32-year-old woman.

We report a rare clinical presentation of renal cell carcinoma in the form of small bowel obstruction which was secondary to a metastatic ileal intussusception. Intussusception in the elderly is most commonly due to an underlying neoplasm, however metastases from a renal cell carcinoma is very uncommon. We present clinical details, radiological and pathological findings of the case followed by a discussion of the diagnosis and management of intussusception in the adult population.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) may metastasize to almost any organ, but metastasis to the small bowel is very rare. Factors responsible for a resistant behavior of small bowel wall are still not clear. Small bowel metastasis from RCC may cause obstruction, bleeding, and perforation. RCC metastasis to the small bowel presenting as intussusception is extremely rare. Only 20 cases of small bowel intussusceptions caused by metastatic RCC have been reported worldwide. Here, we are reporting this rare case of RCC with simultaneous solitary metastasis in jejunum which presented as intussusceptions and which was treated with simultaneous radical nephrectomy, jejunal resection, and anastomosis.

Bowel metastasis secondary to renal cell carcinoma causing intussusception is very rare condition. Here a case of a 52-year-old male, who presented with signs and symptoms of small bowel obstruction is reported. CT abdomen showed small bowel obstruction due to ileo-ileal intussusception and left renal mass. On exploratory laparotomy Ileo-ileal intussusception was present. FNAC taken from left kidney at same sitting. Histology of resected specimen reported metastatic nodule in small bowel of renal cell carcinoma. FNAC confirmed primary renal cell carcinoma of left kidney. Although abdominal CT scanning provides the most reliable indications, it is laparotomy, that establishes the diagnosis of intussusception, and the histological examination that determines the cause.

Renal cell carcinomas have diverse clinical presentations. Patients may present with metastatic symptoms at the time of diagnosis or years after resection of primary tumour. Small intestine is a rare site for metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Presentation as polypoid metastasis with intussusception is extremely rare. Here, we report two cases with this rare presentation. Case 1 was a 65-year-old male with multiple polypoid metastasis causing intussusception while on palliative chemotherapy for renal cell carcinoma. Case 2 was a 68-year-old female with history of nephrectomy presenting with single polypoid metastasis causing intussusception.
