Figure 1 Contrast enhanced computed tomography of abdomen.
Corticomedullary phase (A) shows a heterogeneous enhancing mass (arrows) in the right kidney with invasion into the right renal vein and inferior vena cava (arrow head). Note normally opacified left renal vein (curved arrow); Coronal reconstructed image (B) shows the intraluminal tumoral filling defect causing expansion of the right renal vein and inferior vena cava (straight arrows) in continuity with primary renal mass. Tumor thrombus is also seen in right pulmonary artery (curved arrows); Axial contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) of chest (C and D) shows saddle type filling defect (tumor thrombus) in the bifurcation of main pulmonary artery (arrows in C) and segmental branches of the bilateral pulmonary artery (arrows in D); Axial CECT of chest in lung window (E) shows wedge shaped patchy consolidation with central lucency in the subpleural region of the posterior segment in the right lower lobe (arrows) consistent with pulmonary infarct.
