Abstract

Synchronous prostate and renal cancer is rarely encountered in the genitourinary system. An increase in the incidence rate of multiple synchronous tumors can be expec-ted in parallel to the prolongation of time of life and the developments in diagnostic met-hods. The present study aimed at reporting two cases with a rarely seen association of prostate and renal cancer while reviewing the literature. 

Keywords: Synchronous tumor, Prostate adenocarcinoma, Renal cell carcinoma
