ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
We report the details of a cytoreduction technique for pelvic lymph node recurrence with involvement of the external iliac vein (EIV) requiring a partial resection and reconstruction of the EIV.METHODS:
A 51-year-old woman presented with ovarian cancer and isolated nodal recurrence located on the right side of the pelvis. As the tumor had infiltrated the EIV wall, we performed the EIV excision and reconstruction using an autogenous graft.RESULTS:
EIV reconstruction was achieved using a right ovarian vein patch. No intra- or early postoperative complications occurred. A postoperative enhanced magnetic resonance imaging examination confirmed the patency of the EIV.CONCLUSION:
An en bloc EIV excision and reconstruction for contiguous tumor involvement seems to be a feasible and safe surgical option.Palavras-chave
