Transitional cell carcinoma of the renal pelvis forming tumor thrombus in the vena cava

A 47-year-old man presented with a left renal incidentaloma without hematuria. The tumor was complicated by inferior vena cava (IVC) thrombus extending from Th 11 to L 4 . A temporary IVC filter was introduced prior to surgery. A midline incision was used to perform a left radical nephrectomy and en bloc lymphadenectomy with excision of the inferior vena cava from above the level of the left renal vein to 2.5 cm above the confluence of the common iliac veins. The pathological diagnosis was invasive transitional cell carcinoma. The tumor thrombus consisted of transitional cell carcinoma that histologically invaded the walls of the IVC. He died of cancer 17 months after the operation for the liver metastases. This is the 18th case report of such a presentation in the literature.

“…Because the prognosis is poor, chemotherapy like M-VAC can be an adjuvant treatment for these patients [3]. Indeed, 2 cases (cases 8 [11] and present case) were subjected to adjuvant chemo therapy (M-VAC), and both survived longer than 18 months.…”

Renal pelvic cancer with a large vein tumor thrombus is very rare. We report a case of transitional cell carcinoma of the right renal pelvis with tumor thrombus in the inferior vena cava. Based on the radiological findings, the patient was diagnosed having renal cell carcinoma with tumor thrombus in the vena cava preoperatively. Radical nephrectomy with thrombectomy was performed. A literature review of 17 reported cases revealed that 13 cases (76.5%) were diagnosed as renal cancer preoperatively. Prognosis of transitional cell carcinoma with vena cava tumor thrombus is relatively poor compared to that of renal cell carcinoma with a large vein tumor thrombus.

“…To i)ur knowledge, only 20 cases of TCC with vena cava tumor thrombus have been reported so far including our two cases [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] (Table I), Among these tumors, renal cell carcinoma accounts for 879f of IVC tumor thrombosis.…”

We report two cases of transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) of the right kidney with extension into renal vein and interior vena cava (IVC). Based on radiological lindings. the patients were diagnosed having renal cell carcinoma with lumor thrombus in the vena cava pre-preoperalively. Radical nephrcctomy with thrombeclomy was pertbrmed. A lilerature review of 18 reported cases revealed that 14 cases (77.8%) were diagnosed as renal cell carcinoma preoperatively, TCC should be included in the differential diagnosis of renal tumors that can cause IVC thrombosis. Prognosis of TCC with vena cava thrombus is relatively poor compared to that of renal cell carcinoma with a large vein tumor thrombus.
