Abstract:
We describe the case of a 37-year-old woman who presented with an unusually large (26 × 20 × 16 cm) extraluminal leiomyosarcoma arising from segment I (below the renal vessels) of the inferior vena cava. She was successfully managed with radical surgical excision and reconstruction of the inferior vena cava with synthetic graft.
