The Authors describe a case of a man (68 years) affected by renal metastasis from pancreatic adenocarcinoma. Additional metastases had been detected in the liver, in the spleen and in the small intestine. The man underwent radical nephrectomy (to prevent hematuria), splenectomy and biopsies in liver and small intestine. After surgery the patient refused adjuvant chemotherapy.
