%X Renal cell carcinoma has extremely heterogeneous presentation at the diagnosis: it may present as a confined organ disease, locally advanced, metastatic to locoregional lymph nodes or with single or multiple systemic metastases. Since chemotherapy and radiation therapy have not demonstrated efficacy either in primary therapy or in neo-adjuvant or adjuvant therapy for renal clear cell carcinoma, targeted agents like tirosine kinase inhibitors were developed and are largely used in locally advanced and metastatic renal cell carcinoma. Here, we present a rare case of ipsilateral renal cell carcinoma testicle metastasis, after radical nephrectomy and during tyrosine kinase inhibitors therapy. In addition, a retrospective search in PubMed, ScienceDirect, and Web of Science database on testicular metasteses from renal cell carcinoma under tyrosine kinase inhibitors therapy was performed
