Renal cell carcinoma with tumor thrombus in the lower cava vein reaching the right atrium – Case report and brief review of the literature

Approximately 15% of cases of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) can invade the inferior vena cava, leading to the formation of a thrombus inside it, which can reach the cardiac chambers in up to 1% of cases. This article reports a case of RCC with venous thrombus that reached the right atrium. The patient...
