A 38-year-old woman had developed an abdominal distention, lower extremity edema, and dyspnea. Imaging examination revealed a large mass in the right atrium which was connected to lesions within the inferior vena cava. Although complete resection of the mass was not possible, partial surgical tumor resection was performed to avoid pulmonary embolization and circulatory collapse. Leiomyosarcoma was diagnosed histologically, and chemotherapy (doxorubicin) followed by radiotherapy was started. By reviewing papers published in the past 10 years that included 322 patients, we also discuss the clinical presentations and prognosis of leiomyosarcoma in the inferior vena cava.

“…Externally supported PTFE grafts are used most often for replacement of IVC [ 11 , 15 , 16 , 23 , 24 ]. However, Dacron graft is increasingly used in the reconstruction of IVC [ 25 ]. In all five of our cases, a Dacron graft was used for reconstruction after radical excision of the primary IVC LMS.…”

Tumors of the inferior vena cava (IVC) are rare and usually malignant and they can be primary and secondary. The most common primary tumor of the IVC is primary leiomyosarcoma. The first case of primary IVC leiomyosarcoma has been described in 1871 [1].The total number of 218 cases has collected until 1996 [2]. After that, three large single center series of these tumors emerged [3–5]. Present a series of five cases of these tumors. All the patients underwent a wide complete resection of tumors and the reconstruction with Dacron grafts. One patient died 19 months after the surgery, while the remaining ones survived without a local and system disease relapse. Although a surgical resection combined with the chemotherapy is often not curative, it can achieve a significant long-term survival. For this reason, we recommend the aggressive surgical management using the modern vascular surgical and oncology techniques.

“…The mitotic rate was up to Furthermore, this problem can extend to whether the adjacent kidney should be preserved or sacrificed. Several case reports have described IVC reconstruction with preservation of the adjacent kidney using various surgical approaches to resect IVC tumor involving renal vein (Table 1) [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13].…”

using the patch cavoplasty technique with cryopreserved cadaveric vein graft and right renal vein reimplantation instead of kidney autotransplantation. To our knowledge, there are no published reports of this unique reconstruction method. CASE REPORT A 51-year-old woman without major medical history was admitted for surgical treatment of IVC mass. The mass was detected by computed tomography (CT), during a routine checkup. The patient did not show any symptoms. Subsequent to CT, we used magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (Fig. 1). The mass began from the inferior hepatic IVC and extended below the right renal vein. The mass showed concave border with anterior side of IVC, rather than compressed IVC; hence, the diagnosis was leiomyosarcoma originated from the wall of IVC. The patient underwent surgery in January 2016. After a long midline incision, the IVC was exposed by Kocher maneuver and
