Renal cell carcinoma metastases to the oral cavity: report of two cases and review of literature
The localization of renal cell carcinoma metastases in the oral cavity has been reported, accounting for about the 15% of patients with metastasizing renal disease. In the present work, we report two cases of oral metastases of renal carcinoma, and provide a review of current literature on the occurrence of oral metastases of renal origin. The first patient (male, aged 62 years old) presented with a tumefaction of the body of the tongue. The second patient (male, aged 71 years old) showed a large mass localized in the buccal mucosa.
