A case is reported of carcinosarcoma of the right kidney composed of transitional cell and giant cell elements with invasion into the inferior vena cava. Obstruction of the renal vein should be considered in patients with transitional cell carcinoma and an ipsilateral nonvisualized kidney on excretory urography. © 1982 by The American Urological Association Education and Research, Inc.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetailsCited ByLeo M, Petrou S and Barrett D (2018) Transitional Cell Carcinoma of the Kidney with Vena Caval Involvement: Report of 3 Cases and A Review of the LiteratureJournal of Urology, VOL. 148, NO. 2 Part 1, (398-400), Online publication date: 1-Aug-1992.Goldfarb D, Lorig R, Zelch M, Patrone P, Bukowski R and Pontes J (2018) Right Renal Mass with Vena Caval ThrombusJournal of Urology, VOL. 143, NO. 3, (574-577), Online publication date: 1-Mar-1990.
