D W Spell1, D S Gervais, J K Ellis, R H Vial.   

Abstract

We describe a 49-year-old woman with a history of metastatic renal cell carcinoma and classic signs and symptoms of left-sided cavernous sinus syndrome. Magnetic resonance imaging showed a lesion in the left cavernous sinus consistent with metastatic renal cell carcinoma. The patient received radiation therapy totaling 4,600 cGy, with complete resolution of symptoms. This represents the first case report of renal cell carcinoma metastatic to the left cavernous sinus.
