“…WT involves IVC invasion in 4–8% of cases [ 19 ], and caval extension of WT has been an important surgical challenge. Although tumor thrombus of renal vein or IVC was not found in the present case, extension of renal cell carcinoma into duplications of IVC and the retroaortic renal veins has been reported [ 18 , 20 – 22 ].…”

BackgroundWilms tumor is the most common renal tumor of childhood. Duplication of the inferior vena cava is an uncommon anomaly. In the present study, we present a case of Wilms tumor with the inferior vena cava duplication, which has not been reported previously.Case presentationA 14-month-old female presented with an enlarging abdominal mass. Computed tomography imaging demonstrated a large mass in the right kidney, duplication of the inferior vena cava below the renal veins and compression of the right inferior vena cava caused by the enormous mass. A right radical nephrectomy was performed. Final pathology was consistent with Wilms tumor. Postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy was executed. Computed tomography imaging at 3 months postoperatively showed the right inferior vena cava played a dominant role and the left inferior vena cava was not detected clearly. During the follow-up of 18 months, no local recurrence or metastasis has been observed.ConclusionIt is important to recognize the case of Wilms tumor with the inferior vena cava duplication to avoid injury of retroperitoneal venous anomalies and life-threatening hemorrhage during surgery through preoperative computed tomography.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1186/s12894-018-0401-0) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Renal cell carcinomas are the most common renal neoplasm with high mortality. Recurrence of neoplasm is not uncommon following treatment. However, we present an extremely rare case of 74-year-old male patient of recurrent renal cell carcinoma with tumour thrombosis into left circumaortic vein which has not been reported previously in literature to our best knowledge. CT urography is the study of choice for clear delineation of the site and extension of the neoplastic lesion. Rare venous anomalies of renal vein are of utmost importance in order to plan surgical management and prognosis in follow-up cases especially after partial nephrectomy.

“…Later in 1997, Lantraveras and Ferruci [14] proposed the role of MRI for evaluation of renal masses in selected cases of renal cell carcinoma, in which tumour thrombus in the renal vein or IVC is suspected, but not detected by CT.…”
