Comprehensive review highlights surgical approaches and imaging strategies in managing intravenous leiomyomatosis, indicating the role of multidisciplinary care.

Key Points

Intravenous leiomyomatosis is a rare smooth muscle tumor originating from the uterus, often extending to the vascular system.
Surgical management involves either single-stage or two-stage procedures, depending on tumor extent and patient risk factors.
Post-operative care emphasizes anti-coagulation therapies to prevent thromboembolic complications in affected patients.
Advanced imaging techniques are vital for both pre-operative planning and monitoring residual disease after surgery.
