Abstract :
Secondary ovarian involvement by renal cell carcinoma rarely occurs. Here, we describe the computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging findings of bilateral ovarian metastases from renal cell carcinoma that demonstrated heterogeneous strong contrast enhancing tumors with flow voids around and within the tumors. In addition, the apparent diffusion coefficients of the malignant tumors were high. These findings were similar to those of renal cell carcinomas at primary and other metastatic sites.
