We report the case of a 61-year-old man diagnosed in 2001 with rectal cancer (stage T3N1M0).
The patient was treated with surgery, adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy. In 2009, he was admitted to the urology department with a complaint of right hemiabdominal pain. The anatomopathological investigation reported renal metastasis of colon adenocarcinoma. After surgery, he received adjuvant chemotherapy. No tumour recurrence or metastasis was reported at the 22-month follow-up.
