Abstract
|
|
|
|
Leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava (IVC) is an uncommon tumor and usually shows poor prognosis. Complete surgical resection is the only proven therapy and the effect of adjuvant therapy on the patient’s survival has still not been demonstrated. We recently, experienced a case of IVC leiomyosarcoma that had been surgically resected and the tumor was noted to have spread to the liver on follow up. Metastatic tumor was removed by hepatectomy without any further evidence of necurrence. We report here on this case of the IVC leiomyosarcoma along with conducting a review of the relevant literatures.
