The aim of the study was assessment of diagnosis and surgical treatment of adrenal metastases (AM) of renal carcinoma (RC). 10 cases of RC AM have been analysed. Bilateral metastases were diagnosed in 2 patients, ipsilateral in 5 patients, contralateral in 3. Three patients had synchronous metastases, seven had metachronous ones. AM were detected 8 months to 14 years after after operation on the kidney. Non-invasive dynamic control over the retroperitoneal space after nephrectomy for RC using advanced visual methods (ultrasonography, x-ray and resonance magnetic CT) not only detects AM but also determines metastatic genesis of the tumor. Thus, significant verification of RC AM, especially of metachronous origin, requires the study of the findings obtained at clinical, laboratory, ultrasonic, radiation examinations as well as comparison of histological structure of the removed kidney tumor and the adrenal. Early diagnosis and removal of a solitary adrenal metastasis of RC provides prolongation of the patient's life and survival of patients with RC late stages.
