Abstract
Symptomatic pituitary metastasis and intraventricular haemorrhage from a cerebral metastasis are exceptional events in the natural history of a renal cell carcinoma. We report the first case of a metastatic renal cell carcinoma to the pituitary gland presenting with intraventricular haemorrhage. The origin of intraventricular haemorrhage and its association with renal cell carcinoma pituitary metastasis are discussed.
