# Surgical resection as a curative intervention for solitary renal cell carcinoma metastasis to the nasal cavity

## TL;DR

This paper presents a rare case of kidney cancer spreading to the nasal cavity and being treated with surgery.

## Contribution

The novelty lies in describing a rare metastatic case of clear cell renal cell carcinoma to the nasal cavity successfully treated with surgical resection.

## Key findings

- Clear cell renal cell carcinoma can metastasize to the nasal cavity.
- Surgical resection can be a curative treatment for such rare metastases.

## Abstract

Persistent unilateral nasal obstruction with recurrent epistaxis in an adult should raise suspicion of malignancy. Renal cell carcinoma accounts for 90% of all renal malignancies but rarely manifests as a nasal mass. We describe a case of clear cell renal cell carcinoma metastasizing to the nasal cavity.
