Abstract
Although renal vein invasion and/or inferior vena cava extension occurs in 4%-10% of patients with renal cell carcinoma, involvement of the gonadal vein is uncommon. We present a case of a patient with unresectable metastatic renal cell carcinoma invading the gonadal vein, who was initially treated with targeted molecular therapy.Entities:
