Renal cell cancer (RCC) is the most common kidney tumor and accounts for 3% of all adult cancers. Hodgkin’s lymphoma (HL) is also constitutes less than 1% of all malignancies with the male predominance. The risk of secondary cancer increases during the treatment period of HL in 15 years of followup. We presented a case indicating co-occurence between HL and RCC and literature review about this rare coincidence.
