Metastasis of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) to the head and neck region is rare. The metastases of RCC are radioresistant with surgery as the primary treatment modality. Here, we present a case of a 73-year-old male who presented with left facial swelling which on biopsy and immunohistochemistry showed metastatic RCC. The patient was re-evaluated again and the left renal primary was found out.
