Extracorporeal Partial Nephrectomy with Orthotopic Autotransplantation under Pharmaco-Cold Ischaemia for Cancer of a Single Kidney: A Case Report
Up to 10% of patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) have locally advanced disease with venous tumour thrombosis involving the inferior vena cava (IVC). 30–50% of them present with synchronous metastatic disease. Surgical treatment remains the only potentially radical method for patients suffering...

Sumario: | Up to 10% of patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) have locally advanced disease with venous tumour thrombosis involving the inferior vena cava (IVC). 30–50% of them present with synchronous metastatic disease. Surgical treatment remains the only potentially radical method for patients suffering from RCC and IVC tumour thrombosis without distant metastases. Five-year cancer-specific survival for such patients is 40–60%. The role of surgery in the treatment of RCC is significant, even if only cytoreductive operation is possible. Nephron-sparing surgery (NSS) is reasonably preferable for patients suffering from single kidney RCC, but it is not always radical enough. Extracorporeal approach allows to perform a radical dissection of the tumour in special complicated cases, but it is seldom used because of technical difficulties. We present a case of successful NSS by extracorporeal approach in our modification for RCC with IVC tumour thrombosis. |
