RCC is known to metastasize widely but cutaneous metastases are considered uncommon and are rarely the presenting symptom of RCC. We present a case of RCC presenting with a tumor on the scalp.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 65-year-old healthy man presented with a 9-month history of a growing mass on the scalp. Clinical examination revealed a pulsating, highly vascularized tumor that was excised. Histopathological findings were consistent with a metastasis from a renal cell carcinoma. Further investigations revealed a 13 cm kidney tumor with metastases to the lungs and mediastinum.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Cutaneous metastasis from RCC is uncommon and is rarely the initial symptom of RCC. The lesions often have a vascularized appearance and may be clinically confused with other vascular tumors. Skin metastasis is a sign of advanced disease and prognosis is poor.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>An occult RCC may present with a skin lesion. Skin metastasis from RCC is an important differential diagnosis in tumors with a vascular appearance, especially in patients with a previous history of RCC.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Highlights<\/jats:title>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijscr.2020.09.122","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,9,24]],"date-time":"2020-09-24T13:48:09Z","timestamp":1600955289000},"page":"56-59","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Renal cell carcinoma presenting as a tumor on the scalp"],"prefix":"10.1097","volume":"76","author":[{"given":"Christina","family":"Krogerus","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Matilda","family":"Svenning","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anette Pedersen","family":"Pilt","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hannah","family":"Tr\u03c6strup","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-14-20260114","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"79","DOI":"10.14740\/wjon1279","article-title":"Epidemiology of renal cell carcinoma","volume":"11","author":"Padala","year":"2020","journal-title":"World J.
