Abstract Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is known to recur decades after nephrectomy; however, isolated cutaneous metastasis is rare. Previous clinical history plays vital role. Newly occurring skin lesions in follow‐through patients of RCC should be carefully evaluated, and possibility of its metastasis should be acknowledged. Disease‐free survival postmetastasectomy is possible.
