The clinical presentation of renal cancer and its metastatic disease is very variable. Renal carcinoma can metastasize, in order of frequency, to lung, bone, liver, adrenal and brain. Metastases are the most frequent cause of extrapulmonary lesions. The diagnosis is made by chest radiography, as an initial imaging test, followed by CT, which allows to determine more precisely the location, origin and extent of the lesion (to establish the stage of these tumors), and because in addition, with the ultrasound, it is used as a guiding method for performing interventional procedures.
