| Abstract | We describe a 68-year-old man who presented with headaches, nausea, and dizziness and was found to have a superior sagittal sinus venous thrombosis on magnetic resonance imaging. His initial hypercoagulable workup was negative. Computed tomography of the abdomen revealed a large mass originating from the kidney. A radical nephrectomy was performed at an outside hospital, and histological study of the excised mass disclosed clear cell renal carcinoma. |
