AB - Papillary renal cell carcinoma is an uncommon malignant tumor, which rarely metastases to the bladder
and/or omentum. We report the case of a 71-year-old woman with macrohematuria for two years and a large
mass on the right flank. Thus, we present a brief review of the literature regarding the classification, clinical
manifestations, diagnosis, immunohistochemical profile, and treatment of this neoplasm. Special attention
was given to the role of immunohistochemistry, which was decisive for the determination of multiple
metastases, as well as the study by imaging exams, which defined the best surgical approach.
