Small renal mass with large lymph nodal metastasis and inferior vena cava thrombus: an exceptional amalgamation
1Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research, Chandigarh, India.
Abstract:
A small renal mass is defined as a tumour <4cm. The standard treatment of choice for small renal masses is partial or radical nephrectomy, depending on the tumour anatomy, and has good overall and cancer-specific survival. Its association with lymph node metastasis and inferior vena cava (IVC) thrombus is very uncommon. We describe a case of a right small renal mass with a large metastatic paracaval lymph node with IVC level I thrombus who was treated with right radical nephrectomy with thrombus removal and lymph node excision.
