Abstract
A leiomyosarcoma was diagnosed in the mid portion of the inter-renal inferior vena cava. Survival was long (6 years) but required 14 reoperations to remove metastases. During the first operation, vascular integrity was reestablished with a cava-cava prosthesis after exeresis of the upstream cava without removal of the left renal vein ostium. The right renal vein was sectioned and directly implanted onto the prosthesis. The pathology report confirmed the diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma with multiple metastases presenting cytonuclear anomalies which worsened with time.
