Abstract
Purpose of review: Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC) with invasion into the inferior vena cava (IVC) is a rare and mortal condition. Patients with RCC have an average life expectancy of no more than six months, thus requiring an aggressive surgical approach. We analyze the outcomes of patients that underwent surgery at a single medical institution.
Recent findings: The analysis of recent series of successful treatment with radical nephrectomy and IVC thrombectomy shows a 5 year survival from 45 to 69%. We found in the analyzed series that the success of the treatment in these patients depends on the resection of the renal tumor and venous thrombectomy. We found that at our medical institution nephrectomy and IVC thrombectomy with primary repair have no intraoperative mortality and no pulmonary embolism. Nephrectomy and thrombectomy of IVC is a reliable approach for patients with advance RCC.
期刊介绍：
This journal intends to review the most important, recently published findings in the field of urology. By providing clear, insightful, balanced contributions by international experts, the journal elucidates current and emerging approaches to the care and prevention of urologic diseases and conditions.
We accomplish this aim by appointing international authorities to serve as Section Editors in key subject areas, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia, erectile dysfunction, female urology, and kidney disease. Section Editors, in turn, select topics for which leading experts contribute comprehensive review articles that emphasize new developments and recently published papers of major importance, highlighted by annotated reference lists. An international Editorial Board reviews the annual table of contents, suggests articles of special interest to their country/region, and ensures that topics are current and include emerging research. Commentaries from well-known figures in the field are also provided.
