Özet

Cardiovascular diseases are among the most common causes of death in the world and in our country.Venous Thromboembolism (VTE) is the most important cause of mortality after DVT.Survival is worse in patients with cancer diagnosed concomitantly with deep vein thrombosis.However, information on specific malignancies is limited.If the treatment is started after DVT and the etiology is not investigated, new diagnosis malignancy treatment may be delayed and cause mortality, especially in elderly patients.Our patient, 58 years old, was diagnosed with DVT,after the dvt clinic did not regress and was investigated for malignancy. Left Renal Cell Carcinoma was diagnosed and surgically treated.
