Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and multiple myeloma (MM) accounts for 1-3% of adult malignancies and secondary primary tumors accounts for 5-8% of all malignant cases. Hematologic malignancies are rarely observed with RCC. The relationship between solid tumors and lymphoid neoplasms may be due to chemo...

Description
Summary:Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and multiple myeloma (MM) accounts for 1-3% of adult malignancies and secondary primary tumors accounts for 5-8% of all malignant cases. Hematologic malignancies are rarely observed with RCC. The relationship between solid tumors and lymphoid neoplasms may be due to chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Genetic, hormonal, environmental and complex factors may be involed in the etiology of multiple primary tumors. Several studies suggested that interleukin-6 may be as a common cytokine in the etiology of MM and RCC. We aimed to report two cases who have RCC with MM- Hodgkin' s lymphoma.
