Intravenous leiomyomatosis is a rare condition often associated with uterine fibroids. Characteristic MRI findings of masses in the inferior vena cava and heart aid in diagnosis.

Area of Science:

  • Reproductive medicine
  • Cardiovascular imaging
  • Oncology

Background:

  • Intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) is a rare condition characterized by the proliferation of benign smooth muscle tumors within vascular structures.
  • It is often associated with uterine leiomyoma or a history of hysterectomy due to uterine leiomyoma.

Observation:

  • This study presents two cases of IVL.
  • Both cases involved patients with a history of uterine leiomyoma or prior hysterectomy for uterine leiomyoma.

Findings:

  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed characteristic findings in both cases.
  • Specific findings included the presence of a mass within the inferior vena cava and extending into the heart.

Implications:

  • The distinctive MRI features observed in these cases are crucial for the accurate diagnosis of intravenous leiomyomatosis.
  • Early and accurate diagnosis through MRI can facilitate timely management and improve patient outcomes.
