4. Fig. 3
Abdominal removal of small intra-atrial thrombus. Diaphragm is dissected off of suprahepatic inferior vena cava, Rummel tourniquet controls porta hepatis and clamps are applied to major hepatic veins as well as distal vena cava and left renal vein. Traction on tumor allows thrombus to be milked down and vascular clamp to be placed on suprahepatic inferior vena cava.
