Abstract
Ewing's sarcoma of the kidney is a rare tumor. Although renal carcinomas are known to involve the inferior cava, extension of the tumor up to the right atrium is not common. In the majority of cases when the tumor extends into the infrahepatic part of the inferior vena cava, it can be removed from the abdominal approach. Few patients require the use of cardiopulmonary bypass for removal of the tumor in the inferior vena cava and right atrium. The management of patients requiring resection of kidney tumors and right atrial mass is more complicated and requires a team approach consisting of oncosurgeons, cardiac surgeons, and cardiac anesthetists. The resection of the kidney tumor with a mass in the right atrium is usually done concomitantly. The cardiopulmonary bypass cannulation strategy needs to be modified in such cases.
