Core Tip |
Traditionally an aggressive renal mass with pulmonary tumor embolism is an entity well described with renal cell carcinomas. However renal primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET), a rare and aggressive tumor can have the similar presentation. The severity of the clinical manifestations of pulmonary tumor embolism is highly variable and less predictable. Bland thrombus often mimics like tumor emboli in imaging and histopathology is often confirmatory. Tumoral extension into the pulmonary artery is not necessarily associated with pulmonary metastasis. Surgical removal of the thrombus along with the primary tumor followed by adjuvant chemotherapy may prolong the survival in these patients. |
