We present a case of inadvertent left renal vein clipping during right retroperitoneoscopic nephrectomy (RPN) and describe its expeditious identification and management. A 13-year-old girl underwent RPN for nonfunctioning kidney due to urolithiasis. During the dissection of the right renal vein, the inferior vena cava (IVC) got lifted off the parietal wall and the left renal vein was mistakenly ligated.

Purpose: We present the case of a rare extrahepatic portocaval shunt that resulted in communication of the portal vein and the inferior vena cava (IVC) at the level between two right renal veins that was incidentally diagnosed with contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) in an asymptomatic patient.

Methods: A woman in her sixties with abdominal pain and diarrhea of unclear origin underwent exploratory abdominal CECT.

Results: The CECT incidentally revealed an extrahepatic portocaval shunt, whereby a vessel arising from the portal vein superior to the confluence of the superior mesenteric and splenic veins drained into the posterior aspect of the IVC between two right renal veins.

Inferior vena cava (IVC) invasion by tumor thrombus poses a significant surgical challenge, often requiring vascular reconstruction. Standard methods, including prosthetic and autologous vein grafts, have limitations such as infection risks, anticoagulation demands, and increased costs. We present the case of a 66-year-old male with a right renal tumor (T3bN0M0, Neves Zincke II) and gross hematuria, who underwent radical nephrectomy with open thrombectomy.

Introduction: We investigated the subsequent trends in age and antithrombotic therapy in patients who underwent transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT) and examined the rate of perioperative complications.

Methods: Medical records of patients who underwent TURBT were retrospectively analyzed. We arbitrarily divided the observation years into three periods (I: 2007-2013, II: 2014-2018, and III: 2019-2023) to compare the trends in age and frequency of perioperative complications after TURBT between patients taking and those not taking antithrombotic drugs.
