First Resection of a Cavoatrial Renal Tumor Thrombus in a Pediatric Patient in Central America Based on a Multistage Surgical Safety Strategy Combining Liver Transplant Techniques and Cardiac Surgery

First Resection of a Cavoatrial Renal Tumor Thrombus in a Pediatric Patient in Central America... We herein report the challenging evaluation and planning process involved in performing the first successful surgical resection of a renal tumor with extensive inferior vena cava tumor thrombosis reaching the right atrium in a pediatric patient within the Central American region. In November 2018, the Oncology Department of the National Children’s Hospital in Costa Rica consulted our Center for Liver Transplantation and Hepatobiliary Surgery for the evaluation of a clinical case involving a 6-year-old female patient with progressive Budd-Chiari syndrome caused by a Wilms’ tumor of the right kidney with tumor thrombosis of the inferior vena cava reaching the right atrium. A multistage surgical safety strategy combining liver transplant techniques and cardiac surgery was thereafter designed and implemented, achieving complete excision of the tumor thrombus from the inferior vena cava with right nephrectomy. Postoperatively, the patient exhibited complete clinical resolution of Budd-Chiari syndrome and has remained tumor free with excellent quality of life while pursuing her second grade of primary school education 22 months after the successful implementation of this multistage surgical safety strategy. The combination of liver transplantation techniques and cardiac surgery based on a multistage surgical safety strategy minimized the occurrence of unexpected intraoperative events and allowed for complete renal tumor resection and level IV thrombectomy for the first time in a pediatric patient of a public health system in a developing country within the Central American region. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Case Reports in Oncology Karger

Abstract

We herein report the challenging evaluation and planning process involved in performing the first successful surgical resection of a renal tumor with extensive inferior vena cava tumor thrombosis reaching the right atrium in a pediatric patient within the Central American region. In November 2018, the Oncology Department of the National Children’s Hospital in Costa Rica consulted our Center for Liver Transplantation and Hepatobiliary Surgery for the evaluation of a clinical case involving a 6-year-old female patient with progressive Budd-Chiari syndrome caused by a Wilms’ tumor of the right kidney with tumor thrombosis of the inferior vena cava reaching the right atrium. A multistage surgical safety strategy combining liver transplant techniques and cardiac surgery was thereafter designed and implemented, achieving complete excision of the tumor thrombus from the inferior vena cava with right nephrectomy. Postoperatively, the patient exhibited complete clinical resolution of Budd-Chiari syndrome and has remained tumor free with excellent quality of life while pursuing her second grade of primary school education 22 months after the successful implementation of this multistage surgical safety strategy. The combination of liver transplantation techniques and cardiac surgery based on a multistage surgical safety strategy minimized the occurrence of unexpected intraoperative events and allowed for complete renal tumor resection and level IV thrombectomy for the first time in a pediatric patient of a public health system in a developing country within the Central American region.
