Twenty-eight patients with renal cell carcinoma extending to the vena cava underwent surgical treatment consisting of radical nephrectomy and removal of tumor thrombus, which was at the level of the renal veins in 23 cases, the hepatic veins in 4, and extending above the diaphragm in 1 case. In 7 patients lymph nodes were invaded, and 8 had both positive nodes and extrarenal tumor diffusion discovered at surgery. The mean survival was 41.7 months for patients with only venous extension of the tumor, 16 months for patients with positive nodes, and 10.2 months for those with both nodal and extrarenal tumor diffusion.
