Abstract Background Metastatic spread to the pancreas is a rare event. Renal cell carcinoma represents one possible site of origin of pancreatic metastases. Renal cell carcinoma often metastasizes late and exclusively to the pancreas, suggesting a special role of renal cell carcinoma among primaries metastasizing to the pancreas. Even rarer, renal cell carcinoma may occur simultaneously with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. Case presentation We present the case of a 78-year-old male Caucasian patient with a history of clear-cell renal cell carcinoma treated with oncological left nephrectomy 20 years before. The patient was diagnosed with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma by fine-needle aspiration cytology. At our institution, he received neoadjuvant therapy with folic acid, fluorouracil, irinotecan, oxaliplatin for borderline-resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and subsequently underwent total pancreatectomy. Upon resection, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma as well as two metachronous metastases of clear-cell renal cell carcinoma occurring simultaneously and cospatially with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma were diagnosed in the pancreatic body. Conclusions Renal cell carcinoma metastases of the pancreas are rare and often occur decades after the initial diagnosis of renal cell carcinoma. The combination of renal cell carcinoma metastases and pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is even rarer. However, the possibility should be considered by clinicians, radiologists, and pathologists. The special role of renal cell carcinoma as a site of origin of pancreatic metastasis should be further elucidated.

Abstract Backgroud Clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is stubborn to traditional chemotherapy and radiation treatment, which makes its clinical management a major challenge. Recently, we have made efforts to understand the etiology of ccRCC. Increasing evidence revealed that the competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) were involved in the development of various tumor. However, it’s scant for studying on ccRCC, and a comprehensive analysis of prognostic model based on lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA ceRNA regulatory network of ccRCC with large-scale sample size and RNA‐sequencing expression data is still limited. Methods RNA‐sequencing expression data were taken out from GTEx database and TCGA database, A total of 354 samples with ccRCC and 157 normal controlled samples were included in our study. The ccRCC-specific genes were obtained from WGCNA and differential expression analysis. Following, the communication between mRNAs and lncRNAs and target miRNAs were predicted by MiRcode, starBase, miRTarBase, and TargetScan. A gene signature of eight genes was constructed by univariate Cox regression, lasso methods and multivariate Cox regression analysis. Results A total of 2191 mRNAs and 1377 lncRNAs was identified, and a dys-regulated ceRNA network for ccRCC was established using 7 mRNAs, 363 lncRNAs, and 3 miRNAs. Further, a gene signature in cluding 8 genes based on this ceRNA was constructed, meanwhile, a nomogram predicting 1-, 3-, 5-year survival probability containing both clinical characteristics and ccRCC-specific gene signatures was developed. Conclusion It could contribute to a better understanding of ccRCC tumorigenesis mechanism and guide clinicians to make a more accurate treatment decision.
