Large (9x10 cm)right central abdominal mass, extending from beneath the diaphragm to just above the level of the iliac crest (hip bone.) Upper port of the mass invades the liver and pancreas and displaces the pancreas. IVC (large venous trunk which receives blood from lower extremities and from pelvic and abdominal organs. It travels through the abdomen (from lower extremities) and returns blood to right atrium of heart) is displaced laterally and infiltrated by mass. Small satellite masses extend into the gallbladder fossa (a portion of the liver). Mass encases adjacent vascular organ networks. Mass encases right renal artery and left renal vein. Right kidney is displaced and liver is infiltrated with mass. Blockage at junction of renal pelvis and ureter. Mass displaces and invades right psoas muscle (An internal muscle arising from lumbar vertebrae and inserted into femur).

8/5/06 CT 0 0 Cancer has moved into liver and bone marrow.
9/06 0 0 0 Disease progression.
10/9/06 0 0 0 Passed away.
