A Rare Case of Renal Cell Carcinoma With Inferior Vena Cava Invasion: A Life-Threatening Complication.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) arises from the renal tubular epithelial cells and comprises a group of heterogenous renal tumors. Renal tumors can metastasize to involve almost any body organ, the common sites being the lung, liver, bone, brain, adrenal gland, head, neck, and rarely, inferior vena cava (IVC), leading to lethal outcomes. We present a case of RCC with IVC invasion in a patient who presented with right-sided flank pain and gross hematuria. His routine biochemical and hematological parameters were unremarkable, and an abdominal examination revealed a complex renal mass with mild hydronephrosis. The patient underwent contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance angiography with venography, which showed a right renal upper polar mass lesion extending into the right vein obliterating it up to its junction with the IVC. Integrating examination and imaging findings were suggestive of right renal RCC. Our case highlights the importance of standard preoperative MRI imaging to assess IVC invasion and its morphologic features including vessel breach or complete occlusion of the IVC.
