Abstract
Adrenal cortical carcinoma is well known to extend into the renal vein s and inferior vena cava. It is less known that neoplasms metastatic t o the adrenal might also extend into the renal vein and cava. Only a f ew reports in the literature document this extension. We report a case of metastatic neoplasm to the adrenal extending into the inferior ven a cava.
