AI Article Synopsis
- Doctors are trying to make surgeries safer for people with kidney cancer who have blood clots in a big vein called the IVC.
- A patient with kidney cancer and an IVC thrombus had a special surgery using a new tool called Inari Protrieve™.
- This new method might help doctors do better surgeries in the future for similar cases.
Article Abstract
Intraoperative efforts have been made to reduce the risk of tumor thrombus in renal cell carcinoma during nephrectomy and inferior vena cava (IVC) thrombectomy to decrease mortality. We present a patient diagnosed with renal malignancy and IVC thrombus. The patient underwent a nephrectomy combined with IVC thrombectomy, utilizing a novel approach with the Inari Protrieve™ (Inari Medical, Inc., Irvine, CA) to prevent embolization of tumor thrombus. With the integration of Protrieve™, we propose an approach to facilitate future surgical techniques for nephrectomy with IVC extension.

Simultaneous pancreas-kidney (SPK) transplantation is a recognized treatment for patients with insulin-dependent diabetes and advanced chronic kidney disease or end-stage renal disease (ESRD), offering significant survival benefits. However, it is associated with a higher risk of venous thrombosis, which can jeopardize the survival of the pancreaticoduodenal graft. This case report describes a patient with type 2 diabetes, hypertension, and ESRD who developed acute, occlusive deep vein thrombosis (DVT) involving the right common femoral, profunda femoral, and greater saphenous veins on postoperative day 1 (POD1) following a deceased donor SPK transplant, despite systemic prophylactic anticoagulation.

Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) has been utilized to treat massive pulmonary embolism (PE) accompanied by cardiac arrest or refractory cardiogenic shock. Our team opted for a femoral-femoral approach for vascular cannulation, using drainage and return cannulas in the common femoral vein and artery, respectively. However, femoral venous cannulation can be limited or challenging due to the presence of thrombus in the inferior vena cava (IVC), making the insertion of the drainage cannula via the femoral vein difficult.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with inferior vena cava (IVC) tumor thrombus is generally considered to be borderline resectable because of its poor prognosis. This report describes a patient who underwent multidisciplinary treatment for HCC with massive IVC tumor thrombus.
Methods: The 56-year-old woman in this study had diffuse HCC of the medial and anterior segments.

Purpose: Management of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with inferior vena cava (IVC) extension is one of the greatest challenges in urology. The gold standard treatment includes extracorporeal circulation and deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA). However, this surgical treatment has an impact on survival and prognosis.

Introduction: Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) often develops a tumor thrombus extending into the inferior vena cava (IVC). Radical nephrectomy with IVC thrombectomy is the standard treatment, although prognostic factors are yet to be properly established.
Objectives: The objectives of this study were to review the clinicopathological features of surgically treated patients with RCC and IVC thrombus and to investigate potential prognostic factors.
