Conclusion
S. Gaujoux et al.
Involvement of the inferior vena cava by adrenocortical carcinoma is rare and associated with impaired oncologic outcome. Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is often poorly effective, while upfront complete surgical resection is potentially curative and should be preferred.
The surgery procedure mainly depends on the upper limit of intracaval extension:
– If the tumor thrombus is located below the suprahepatic veins, this representing
the most frequent clinical situation, cross-clamping of the IVC is sufficient.
– If the tumor thrombus is located between the suprahepatic veins and the cavo-
atrial junction, hepatic vascular exclusion is the technique of choice, with intra­or extrapericardial suprahepatic control.
– If the tumor thrombus is located above the cavo-atrial junction, hepatic vascular
exclusion with intrapericardial suprahepatic control can most of the time be done; otherwise, the use of cardiopulmonary bypass should be considered.
Key Points
– Caval invasion in patients with adrenocortical carcinoma is rare. – In our experience, the upper level of caval extension is best documented by the
combination of transesophageal echocardiography, CT scan, or angio-MRI.
– Most cases are represented by venous invasion and intracaval progression of a
tumor thrombus originating from the primary adrenal tumor.
– Direct invasion to the venous wall is often limited and can be treated by partial
wedge resection with direct closure or interposition of a patch.
– Caval resection with prosthetic replacement is indicated in less than 5 % of the
cases.
– The upper level of caval invasion can be located below, behind, or above the
hepatic vein confluence, with or without right atrial extension.
– In most instances, caval thrombectomy can be performed by cross-clamping of
the IVC, conventional hepatic vascular exclusion, intrapericardial hepatic vascu­lar exclusion, or cardiopulmonary bypass with hypothermic circulatory arrest.

9.1 Introduction
Abdominal tumors with involvement of the inferior vena cava (IVC) are most frequently of renal origin or sarcomas [1]. Ten percent of renal tumors invade the IVC, and 1 % extend up to the right atrium [2, 3]. Nevertheless, extensive caval infiltration or extension to the heart is uncommon. This latter situation is chal­lenging as surgical difficulties and postoperative complications rise along with the level of extension of the thrombus in the IVC and the involvement of surrounding structures [4, 5]. Even in the presence of local invasion or metastasis, surgical resection is the only treatment shown to improve survival in these patients [5, 6]. The use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), for tumors extending to the level of the hepatic veins or into the atrium, is highly recommended [5, 7]. Several series report the use of CPB with deep hypothermia and circulatory arrest (DHCA) [3,
7], but these procedures are associated with significant mortality. For renal cell
carcinoma with cavoatrial extension, a recent multi-institutional study reported an
8.3 % operative mortality with the use of DHCA [3]. Despite the fact that deep
hypothermia provides organ protection, circulatory arrest is associated with a higher risk of neurologic complications and ischemia—reperfusion injury [8]. We reported our experience with the use of CPB and deep hypothermia without circu­latory arrest in the surgical treatment of abdominal tumors with IVC and right atrial involvement [9].

9.2 Preoperative Staging
The staging should include thoracoabdominal computed tomography scan and mag­netic resonance angiography to assess tumor extension and rule out metastasis. The upper extent of the tumor thrombus is defined in accordance with the classification of Neves and Zincke [10], which encompasses four stages. Stage 1 includes tumors with thrombus extension less than 2 cm in the IVC. Stage 2 is for thrombus exten­sion below the hepatic veins. Intrahepatic IVC thrombus extension that remains below the diaphragm corresponds to stage 3. Thrombus extension above the dia­phragm is stage 4. In case of cardiac extension of the tumoral thrombus, the tumor may cross the tricuspid valve. Acute Budd-Chiari syndrome can be seen preopera­tively in case of severe hepatic vein obstruction.
9.3 Surgical Technique
Under general anesthesia, the right common femoral vein is exposed through a groin incision and prepared for cannulation. A complete median sternotomy is per­formed. Depending on the location of the primary tumor, the sternotomy should be extended through a right subcostal incision for right renal, hepatic, and primary IVC tumors. Bilateral subcostal incision or median laparotomy should be used for left renal and left adrenal primary tumors. The pericardium is opened, and the ascending aorta is cannulated. The superior vena cava and common femoral vein are cannu­lated to ensure venous drainage of the upper half and lower half of the body. Mobilization of the right colon is followed by a Kocher maneuver to expose the IVC and the renal veins. The falciform ligament and the right triangular ligament are incised to allow a right hepatic lobe mobilization and exposure of the suprarenal and retrohepatic vena cava. An anteroposterior phrenotomy is achieved, widely expos­ing the hepatic veins and the cavoatrial junction.
Concomitant to the beginning of tumor resection and vena cava dissection, CPB
is started and systemic cooling initiated until cessation of all electrical brain activ­ity. This would usually be achieved at an esophageal temperature of 18–20 °C. The decrease and then cessation of electrical brain activity is assessed by electroen­cephalography. Once the electroencephalogram is flat, CPB flow is decreased from 1 to 1.5 phrenic, and adrenal veins, facilitating dissection, tumoral resection, and atriohe­patic confluent reconstruction.
Then, under deep hypothermia and low CPB flow, the IVC and right atrium are opened to assess thrombus extension (Figs. 9.1 and 9.2) and to consider the patency of the hepatic veins (Fig. 9.3). The right atrium is incised parallel to the right atrio­ventricular sulcus. When the IVC is invaded, an en bloc resection of the infiltrated part with removal of the tumoral thrombus should be carried out, respecting carci­noid margins. In the case of preoperative Budd-Chiari syndrome, the hepatic veins are thrombectomized. Small secondary veins are ligated, and the major hepatic veins
L/min. This would decrease the venous return through hepatic, lumbar,
In case of renal or adrenal cancer, the primary tumor would be first removed.

are reimplanted directly into the right atrium, using a bovine pericardial patch to offset tissue loss (Fig. 9.4), as initially described by Pasic and associates [11]. If IVC is occluded preoperatively (confirmed by preoperative imaging and by operative findings), no vena cava reconstruction (bypass) should be performed. The IVC is usually interrupted just distal to the remaining renal veins. The venous drainage of the lower part of the body and of the renal veins will be achieved through the cavoa­zygos collateral system.
After completion of hepatic vein reconstruction and anastomosis to the right
atrium, CPB normal flow can be restored and rewarming started up to a central tem­perature (bladder or rectal temperature) of 36.5 °C. Then CPB is stopped, cannulas removed, heparin neutralized, and careful hemostasis performed in the thoracic and abdominal cavities.
9.4 Postoperative Management
Postoperatively, patients are placed in light Trendelenburg position to improve venous drainage of the inferior part of the body after interruption of the IVC. Compression stockings can be used to avoid lower limb edema. Patients are also started on intravenous anticoagulation as soon as bleeding is controlled and then switched to oral anticoagulation for at least a year, to prevent extensive thrombosis of the iliac and lower limb venous system. A control computed tomography angiog­raphy scan is recommended before hospital discharge, to control the patency of the atriohepatic reconstruction.
9.5 Discussion
In such complex reconstructions of the atriohepatic outflow, this technique seems safe and allows longer surgical time than circulatory arrest. While ensuring organ protection by a combination of both hypothermia and continuous perfusion, it is

associated with a lower risk of neurologic complications. Several other techniques have already been reported in the literature. All these techniques of resection of the IVC and atrial malignancy extension depend on the cephalad extension of the tumor and are independent from the nature of the tumor.
A recent literature review published by Lawindy and coworkers [5] provides
guidelines on the surgical management of cavoatrial extension of renal cell carcino­mas. For stages 1 (renal) and 2 (retrohepatic) thrombi, a classic abdominal approach without the use of CPB is recommended, with control of the IVC proximal and distal to the tumor. For high-level tumors (stages 3 and 4), a median sternotomy is often required to obtain vascular control distal to the thrombus. Potential complications related to these procedures, such as major bleeding and hypotension, are important concerns. This review clearly states that the use of CPB can easily circumvent such major adverse events [5]. The use of CPB is, nowadays, an essential adjunct for the management of these diseases. The surgical management of IVC leiomyosarcoma is relatively similar, but as this tumor is a rare entity, there are no consensus guidelines. To date, only 300 such cases have been reported in the literature [12].
According to multiple reports, there are two pivotal key points to guarantee a
successful surgical procedure. The first key point is the quality of exposure of the operating field, which is essential to perform a complete resection of the tumoral tissues. Any significant back-bleeding from the hepatic and lumbar veins often com­promises this exposure. Many authors highlighted that a reduced view of the operat­ing field was responsible for incomplete tumor resection, higher risk of warm hepatic or renal ischemia, pulmonary embolism, and acute tubular necrosis [13–16]. The second key point is precise control of any potential major bleeding from the liver venous circulation with the use of CPB [4, 13].
In a report by Ciancio and colleagues [17], 12 patients were surgically treated
without sternotomy or CPB. All 12 patients had thrombus, which did not extend deeply in the right atrium, and no tumoral invasion of the retrohepatic IVC. Thus, the tumor could be “milked” out of the right atrium in these patients. In some of these patients, blood inflow to the liver had to be interrupted to achieve a bloodless field and to allow opening of the retrohepatic IVC.
Even in these last cases, no resection and subsequent reconstruction of the retrohepatic IVC had to be done, so hepatic cross-clamp time was short. Skinners and coworkers [18] described intra­atrial thrombus retrieval using CPB, in combination with hepatic vascular exclu­sion. This technique allows a cavotomy with a remarkable reduction of bleeding from the hepatic veins. Nevertheless, in some cases of chronic IVC obstruction, collaterals such as phrenic veins, lumbars, short hepatic, or adrenal veins become major drainage pathways, bringing unexpected back-bleeding [13]. In their series, the authors reported a high rate (41–60 %) of postoperative complications, including transient hyperbilirubinemia and renal failure [18].
The technique most frequently encountered in the literature is the use of CPB with DHCA [4, 5, 7]. The bloodless field obtained allows an excellent visualization of the tumor and decreases the risk of cellular spreading, incomplete tumor exci­sion, pulmonary embolism, or warm hepatic or renal ischemia. Nevertheless, there are several disadvantages of DHCA, such as end-organ dysfunction, ischemic injury, and ischemia–reperfusion injury. Furthermore, the duration of DHCA is
166
https://t.me/med1917
J.-M. Alsac et al.
limited, with a safe duration of circulatory arrest of 30 min at 18 °C [8] according to some reports. Knowing that complete tumor excision with respect to carcinoid margins remains the principal issue qualifying the success of the operation and long- term survival of patients [6], achieving this can be technically challenging and time-consuming, especially in patients with invasion of surrounding structures.
Cardiopulmonary bypass with deep hypothermic low flow combines, in our experience, the protective effects of hypothermia associated with the positive effect of a continuous low-flow blood perfusion. This allows a longer safe surgery time with a lower risk of organ ischemia. Deep hypothermic low flow (1–1.5 L/min, which can be modulated according to the venous backflow) provides a nearly bloodless field, considerably reducing back-bleeding not only from the hepatic veins but also from the lumbar, adrenal, and short hepatic veins and thus allowing an excellent visualization of the tumor. This technique avoids hepatic vascular exclusion, which requires dissection of hepatic vessels and induces ischemic liver injury owing to cross-clamping. Continuous CPB outflow decreases the risk of cerebral ischemia and stroke. We believe that this technique can facilitate surgical management of these patients, providing a bloodless field with a high level of organ protection. In all cases, a multidisciplinary approach is mandatory for these procedures.
Cardiopulmonary bypass with deep hypothermic low flow needs to be consid­ered as a surgical option in patients with abdominal and retroperitoneal tumors invading the IVC and extending to the right atrium, when there is a need for exten­sive resection of the IVC and reconstruction of the hepatic vein confluence. This technique is reliable and allows a longer safe operative time and organ protection, often necessary to obtain complete excision of the tumor, associated with an excel­lent view of the surgical field.
