ABSTRACT

Renal metastasis are found in 12% of patients with osteosarcoma in autopsias, they are more frecuent than primary sarcomas and usually are asymptomatic. In the past, the main site of osteosarcoma metastasis was the lung and more than 90% of patients with this disease died from that cause. We present a case of a patient 21 years old with shine bone osteosarcoma, who was operated and later received adjuvant chemotherapy. This patient came back a year later with lung metastasis operated three times and four years later he was diagnosed with a renal tumor treated with radical nephrectomy with pathology findings of metastasis of osteosarcoma.
