A rare case of bilateral renal tumor with benign clinical evolution, associated with staghorn calculosis and skin cancer, is reported. Delayed operative treatment was due to difficulties in establishing the diagnosis, controversial results of the sonographic and X-ray examination and lack of cooperation by the patients. The right kidney and regional lymph nodes were removed; metastases were verified on histologic examination of the lymph nodes. After the operation the patient received complex radio-, chemo- and hormonal therapy. Basocellular skin cancer which later developed was cured by contact radiotherapy.
