A rare case of transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) with extension into the renal vein and inferior vena cava (IVC) is presented. Computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and angiography successfully delineated tumor thrombus in the right renal vein and IVC. TCC should be included in the differential diagnosis of renal tumors that can cause IVC thrombosis.
