Resumen

La neoplasia renal con extensión a la vena cava es relativamente rara (4-10%). Cualquiera que sea la terapia coadjuvante (radioterapia, hormonal, quimioterapia e inmunoterapia), la exéresis completa del trombo tumoral de la vena cava continúa siendo la mejor forma de tratamiento. El valor pronóstico de la extensión cefálica de un trombo tumoral en la vena cava inferior en enfermos con carcinoma de células renales es controvertido. Es posible conseguir una larga supervivencia después del tratamiento quirúrgico en enfermos con carcinoma de células renales localizado (supervivencia de 50% en 5 años)

Los autores describen un caso de carcinoma de células renales con extensión a la vena cava en un enfermo del sexo masculino, de 70 años de edad. El enfermo presentaba una historia de lumbalgia derecha y edema del miembro inferior homolateral. La resonancia magnética demostró la presencia y el nivel del trombo tumoral. El enfermo fue sometido a nefrectomía radical derecha y exéresis completa del trombo tumoral de la vena cava

Abstract

Renal cancer with vena cava tumour thrombus is relatively rare (4 to 10%). Because of the poor results obtained with any kind of alternative therapy (e.g. radiation, hormonal, chemotherapy and immunotherapy) operation with complete removal of the vena cava tumour thrombus continues to be the better method of treatment. The prognostic significance of the cephalic extent of an inferior vena caval tumor thrombus associated with renal cell carcinoma is controversial. Long-term survival after surgical treatment is possible in patients with localized renal cell carcinoma (survival 50% at five years). The authors report a case of vena caval extension of renal cell carcinoma in a 70-years-old man. The patient presented with a history of right lombar pain and pedal edema. Magnetic Ressonance demonstrated the presence and the level of tumoral thrombus. The patient was submitted to a radical nefrectomy and complete removal of tumor thrombus from vena caval
