The treatment that has demonstrated impact on the survival of these patients is, without a doubt, the surgery, with success rates of up to 90% during the first stages of the disease, decreasing this index after the progression of the stages. However, most cases that are found in the early stages are presented as radiographic findings or physical examination as palpable abdominal mass. So, this paper reports a clinical case, which shows the importance of timely diagnosis in these patients.
