    Abstract

    A patient presenting with advanced Wilm's tumour was diagnosed as having inferior vena cava involvement with tumour thrombus extending up to the right atrium, and was treated with preoperative chemotherapy (vincristine, actinocymin D, epirubicin). Atrial and inferior vena cava thrombus disappeared and he underwent a successful nephrectomy.
