Deskripsi
Here we report a case of 57-year-old woman with renal angiomyolipoma associated with tuberous sclerosis complex involving inferior vena cava thrombus. We could perform less invasive nephrectomy with thrombectomy because everolimus administration reduced the inferior vena cava thrombus. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report the use of everolimus before performing surgery to treat renal angiomyolipoma with inferior vena cava thrombus.
