Follicular thyroid carcinoma with tumour thrombus extending into superior vena cava and right atrium - A case report.

Project description:Intra-cardiac extension of tumour thrombus of follicular carcinoma of thyroid is uncommon. We report a case of advanced thyroid carcinoma where tumour thrombus was well profiled with CT scan and transesophageal echo images and extension was noted from SVC into right atrium, with clinical features of superior vena cava syndrome. The clinical significance of the "ring sign" is discussed.

Absent right superior vena cava.

Project description:A patient planned to be performed catheter ablation. However, three-dimensional contrast-enhanced chest computed tomography revealed isolated persistent left superior vena cava. We should know such an anatomical abnormality especially when central venous catheter or peripherally inserted central catheter is inserted from right jugular vein or right subclavian vein.

Right superior vena cava draining in the left atrium associated with tetralogy of Fallot and pulmonary atresia.

Project description:We report a case of an anomalous drainage of the right superior vena cava to the left atrium with intact atrial septum associated with Tetralogy of Fallot, pulmonary atresia, and major aortopulmonary collateral arteries.

Selective Upper-Body Perfusion Technique for Removal of Renal Cell Carcinoma Extending into the Inferior Vena Cava and Right Atrium.

Project description:Invasion of a renal cell carcinoma thrombus into the inferior vena cava and right atrium is infrequent. Reaching and completely excising a tumor from the inferior vena cava is particularly challenging because the liver covers the surgical field. We report the case of a 61-year-old man who underwent surgery for a renal cell carcinoma of the right kidney that extended into the inferior vena cava and right atrium. During dissection of the liver to expose the inferior vena cava, transesophageal echocardiograms revealed right atrial mass migration into the tricuspid valve. On emergency sternotomy, the tumor embolized into the main pulmonary artery. We used a selective upper-body perfusion technique involving moderately hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass, cardioplegic arrest, and clamping of the descending aorta, which provided a bloodless surgical field for precise removal of the mass and resulted in minimal blood loss. Our technique might be useful in other patients with tumor thrombus extending into the right atrium because it reduces the need for transfusion and avoids the deleterious effects of deep hypothermic circulatory arrest. Our case also illustrates the importance of continuous transesophageal echocardiographic monitoring to detect thrombus embolization.

Persistent left superior vena cava draining into the left atrium.

Project description:A 40-year-old man was admitted with necrotising fasciitis of the right thigh. Further workup to evaluate for an infectious source revealed an incidental finding of persistent left superior vena cava via transesophageal echocardiography. This finding was confirmed by cardiac MRI. During his hospitalisation, he also developed altered mental status which was found to be secondary to systemic emboli by a head MRI. The primary source of infection was likely his dental abscesses. He underwent intravenous antibiotic therapy for a total of 6 weeks and was then referred to a specialised vascular centre for further management of his congenital anomaly.

Long-term recurrence-free survival of adrenocortical cancer extending into the inferior vena cava and right atrium: Case report and literature review.

Project description:Adrenocortical cancer (ACC) is rare but frequently fatal malignancy. Tumor extension into the inferior vena cava signifies an advanced stage (stage III) of the disease and is frequently associated with high risk of recurrence and short-term survival.To present the surgical and medical management of an unusual case of ACC with IVC invasion up to the right atrium. He has the longest reported tumor-free survival of such a situation. We also reviewed and summarized the literature of similar cases.We present a 15-year old boy who presented with an 11?cm ACC extending into the IVC up to the right atrium and causing the Budd Chiari syndrome. He had complete surgical excision under cardiopulmonary bypass of a large ACC followed by Mitotane adjunctive therapy for 5 years. He is alive and free of any clinical or radiological signs of recurrence 98 months after surgery. This is the longest tumor-free survival reported in the literature of similar cases.Significant invasion of the IVC up to the right atrium by ACC should not preclude surgery with the intent of complete resection. Cardiopulmonary bypass significantly aids this surgical procedure and Mitotane therapy should be instituted postoperatively. Long-term free-survival is possible in such a situation.our patient and the literature review strongly suggest that complete surgical extirpation is the primary choice for patients with ACC invading the IVC, including those reaching the right atrium.

Primary pulmonary artery sarcoma extending retrograde into the superior vena cava.

Project description:Primary pulmonary artery sarcoma is a rare tumor that is highly fatal. It can be misdiagnosed as acute or chronic pulmonary thromboembolic disease. Herein, we report the case of a 22-year-old woman with a preoperative diagnosis of pulmonary embolism and superior vena caval thrombosis. Intraoperatively, an extensive sarcoma was seen to extend retrograde from the pulmonary artery, past the right ventricle and right atrium, and into the superior vena cava. Surgical resection of the tumor and reconstruction of the central pulmonary arteries, followed by adjuvant chemotherapy, relieved the clinical symptoms. The patient remained free of cancer at 14 months postoperatively. We believe that this is the 1st report of a primary pulmonary artery sarcoma that extended retrograde into the superior vena cava.
