Abstract
Among urinary tract tumors, renal cancer is the most common, and regarding histopathological subtype, the clear cell type ranks first. We present the case of a patient who developed two types of solid tumors over an 11-year period. This case also highlights the role of preexisting renal lesions in the development of this cancer, the impact of early intervention on the subsequent course of the disease, as well as the importance of a multidisciplinary team in the treatment of patients with metastatic kidney cancer. Furthermore, despite the complications arising from metastatic renal cancer, the patient maintained a preserved quality of life almost two years after diagnosis.
