ABSTRACT = {We report a case of metastatic collecting duct carcinoma 
(CDC) incidentally found on computer assisted tomography 
in an 18-year-old male who presented status post a motor 
vehicle crash (MVC). The patient underwent total 
nephrectomy/renal vein thrombectomy with retroperitoneal 
lymph node dissection, followed by multimodal therapy, 
with gemcitabine and platinum salt therapy, effecting a 
short lived complete response, followed by single agent 
paclitaxel chemotherapy effecting a similarly short 
lived partial response. We conclude that cytoreductive 
nephrectomy and lymphadenectomy combined with 
chemotherapy may be useful for extending and increasing 
the quality of life of selected patients with CDC.},
