Abstract

A 60-year-old man with a background of resected clear cell renal cancer and resected colorectal adenocarcinoma presented with a pulmonary mass lesion in the left upper lobe which was avid on 18-F FDG PET/CT. Needle biopsy confirmed metastatic renal cell cancer, which was surgically excised with wedge resection. Follow-up imaging 6 months later demonstrated a second slowly enlarging subcentimeter nodule in the contralateral lung with increasing FDG avidity, suspicious of further small volume oligometastatic disease. Following surgical resection of the second pulmonary lesion, histopathological examination demonstrated nodular pulmonary amyloidosis and no evidence of malignancy.
