Leiomyosarcoma of the great saphenous vein
Int Orthop.

Abstract
Primary malignant tumours of the great saphenous vein are extremely rare with only 15 cases reported in the English literature since 1919. We report a patient who survived 5.5 years after treatment with surgery and chemotherapy before dying from lung metastases.
