Retroperitoneal Paraganglioma Treated With Tumor Resection and Replacement of the Inferior Vena Cava

Retroperitoneal paragangliomas are tumors of neuroectodermal origin rarely appearing in the pediatric population. We report a case of a large paraganglioma infiltrating the right kidney and inferior vena cava in a 16-year-old boy who initially presented with a right-sided varicocele. Right retroperi...

description Retroperitoneal paragangliomas are tumors of neuroectodermal origin rarely appearing in the pediatric population. We report a case of a large paraganglioma infiltrating the right kidney and inferior vena cava in a 16-year-old boy who initially presented with a right-sided varicocele. Right retroperitoneal paraganglioma was embolized preoperatively, followed by total tumor excision, right nephrectomy, inferior vena cava resection, and reconstruction using a prosthetic vascular graft. Retroperitoneal tumors requiring surgery can successfully be treated by radical resection and replacement of the inferior vena cava in experienced centers.
