| description | Introduction. Leiomyosarcomas of the inferior vena cava are rare malignant
tumors. A limited number of these cases have been described so far. Only few
of them have intracardiac propagation and surgery is rarely undertaken for
their treatment. Case Outline. We present a 52-year-old female patient in
whom leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava with intracardiac propagation
was diagnosed. The patient underwent successful surgical treatment with
complete removal of the tumor and direct suture of the inferior vena cava.
No additional modalities of therapy were undertaken. Conclusion. Surgery,
without radiation therapy can be a successful option for the treatment of
inferior vena cava leiomyosarcoma with a good short-term result. |
