Abstract
Among the renal lesions described, renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the primary renal neoplastic tumor reaching males in a proportion two times higher than females and characterizing about 2% of the carcinomas of the adult population. Although the treatment of this type of cancer has evolved in recent years, the management of patients with metastatic conditions remains challenging, with possible spreads to the lungs and bones. Vascular metastasis of RCC to the skin, especially the scalp, is a rare condition with few reports described in the literature. The diagnosis of this lesion should consider the patient's clinic, especially in cases with a previous history of renal carcinoma, and maybe a differential diagnosis for vascular lesions. Although the treatment is surgical, there may be an association with possible adjuvant treatments.
