Abstract

Introduction: Extended total nephrectomy (ENT) is the treatment for localized or locally advanced renal cancer with vena cava tumor thrombus. The existence of a vena cava thrombus imposes a vascular surgery time which increases the intraoperative mortality and morbidity. Purpose: the purpose of this clinical case and to evaluate our surgical management of non-metastatic renal cancer with subdiaphragmatic vena cava thrombus. Observation: This was a 63-year-old patient who had presented disabling right low back pain associated with macroscopic haematuria no signs of deglobulization on biological examination. The morphological assessment was carried out using an abdominal computed tomography, which revealed a right kidney tumor classified as T3bN1. A tumor extension assessment by thoracic computed tomography was performed afterwards. There were no remote secondary lesions (M0). After CPR discussion, we performed ENT with lymph node dissection associated with inferior vena cava thrombectomy. The post-operative follow-up had been simple. Controls were carried out at 1 month then every 6 months for 1 year and every year for 5 years. There was no local, loco regional or distant recurrence. Conclusion: Kidney cancer with non-metastatic vena cava thrombus represents a locally advanced form whose surgical management must be well assessed, in terms of the increased risk of perioperative morbidity and mortality.
