ABSTRACT
Leiomyosarcoma is a rare malign neoplasm, representing about 5-7% of all tissue sarcomas while inferior vena cava leiomyosarcomas accounts for only 1%. This paper presents the case of a 74 years old patient that was diagnosed with an abdominal venous leiomyosarcoma involving the inter-renal segment of the inferior vena cava. Tumor was treated by complete in bloc resection. Reconstruction of the vascular axis was performed with an autologous venous tube graft achieved with segments of the right superficial femoral vein. Recurrent free survival and freedom from local or systemic recurrence was observed at 2 years after the intervention thanks to the aggressive radical surgical management.
