Synchronous renal cell cancer (RCC) associated with primary neoplasms of other organs or tissues represents a rare diagnostic report during life. Recently, the widespread use of new diagnostic techniques (echography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging) has permitted diagnosis of clinically silent RCC. We report 6 RCC cases occasionally diagnosed during initial staging of a primary cancer of other organs: 1 rhinopharyngeal carcinoma, 1 gastric cancer, 1 Waldenstrom's disease, 1 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, 2 breast cancer. RCC was clinically silent in all patients. The diagnostic problems related to a report of a renal mass in patients with neoplastic disease at other sites and the consequent therapeutic implications are discussed.

Abstract
Synchronous renal cell cancer (RCC) associated with primary neoplasms of other organs or tissues represents a rare diagnostic report during life. Recently, the widespread use of new diagnostic techniques (echography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging) has permitted diagnosis of clinically silent RCC. We report 6 RCC cases occasionally diagnosed during initial staging of a primary cancer of other organs: 1 rhinopharyngeal carcinoma, 1 gastric cancer, 1 Waldenstrom's disease, 1 non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, 2 breast cancer. RCC was clinically silent in all patients. The diagnostic problems related to a report of a renal mass in patients with neoplastic disease at other sites and the consequent therapeutic implications are discussed.
