Abstract: | ![]() Tumor thrombus from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) usually occurs within the renal vein. We present the first report of a tumor thrombus from RCC extending from the kidney down the ureter and into the lumen of the bladder. This case both: (1) provides evidence for growth of RCC along the urinary tract, and (2) poses a staging dilemma. |
