Abstract
Even if nephrectomy is applied to renal cell carcinoma, there is still a metastatic potential which cannot be estimated. In literature, very few cases have been reported of multiple skeletal muscle metastasis a long time after nephrectomy. A patient who has had a diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma, it must be kept in mind that there could be metastasis to the musculoskeletal system. In this paper, an uncommon case is discussed of multiple skeletal muscle metastasis determined 8 years after radical nephrectomy.
