The decision was made to treat with right modified radical mastectomy, plus freezing of the left breast nodule. During the tomography imaging staging control, a renal tumor lesion is confirmed, an ultrasound-guided biopsy is performed, which gives the pathological diagnosis of chromophobe renal cell carcinoma, thus ruling out metastatic malignancy of breast origin. Under committee approval, surgical treatment is decided. Laparoscopic nephrectomy plus hormone therapy for breast cancer. Conclusion: This case constitutes an atypical presentation of cancer, since it presented two primary origins that were different from each other without being metastasis between any of them.
