At admission, her neurological examination was intact with no focal deficits and normal anal and urinary sphincter continence. A head, contrast-enhanced, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) investigation demonstrated a homogeneously contrast enhancing, 5 cm oval mass presumably originated from the choroid plexus in the trigone of the right lateral ventricle with signs of obstruction and dilation of the temporal horn and atrium of the contralateral ventricle [Figure 2].

The patient's amnesia gradually improved, and the headaches disappeared, and she was discharged after a control computed tomography (CT) [Figure 3] confirmed gross-total resection of the tumor with no signs of intraventricular hemorrhage.
Metastatic clear cell renal carcinoma. Proliferation of anaplastic epithelial cells with clear cytoplasm and hyperchromatic, irregular nuclei, displayed in sheets detached by fine conjunctive septa including capillaries. a: 100x magnification, b: 400x magnification

The final pathological examination revealed the peculiar pattern of gland tissue with nests of clear cells set within a sinusoidal vascular network [Figure 4], consistent with the diagnosis of clear cell renal carcinoma metastasis.
