Abstract
Two clinically silent renal metastatic lesions from primary osteogenic sarcoma were
first detected on radionuclide bone scan. A needle biopsy performed under the guidance
of abdominal ultrasonography confirmed the diagnosis. Prior to nephrectomy, further
definition of the metastatic lesion was attained using enhanced computed tomography.
A review of the English literature revealed only six previous cases of metastatic
osteosarcoma detected in the kidney prior to autopsy.
