Abstract:Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is the eighth most common malignancy, accounting for 3% of all newly diagnosed neoplasms. RCC venous invasion occurs in 4 to 10% of cases. We report a case of RCC with extensive vascular invasion and new-onset liver dysfunction. The etiology of the liver dysfunction was attributed to hepatic vein obstruction; herein we describe the first reported case of transcatheter embolization of RCC for Budd–Chiari syndrome.
