This case study details a surgical strategy for removing a large retroperitoneal myxofibrosarcoma (MFS) involving the inferior vena cava (IVC). The approach ensured complete tumor resection (R0) through meticulous planning and advanced surgical techniques.
Area of Science:
- Surgical Oncology
- Vascular Surgery
- Sarcoma Research
Background:
- Retroperitoneal sarcomas are rare and challenging malignancies.
- Myxofibrosarcoma (MFS) typically affects extremities/trunk, with rare retroperitoneal occurrences.
- Involvement of critical vascular structures significantly worsens prognosis.
