Key Points

To evaluate the outcomes of complete resection and vascular reconstruction for infrahepatic inferior vena cava leiomyosarcomas.
Retrospective case series of 33 patients
Surgical resection of Type I and II IVC leiomyosarcomas
PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) vascular reconstruction performed post-resection
Follow-up assessments of disease-free survival and graft thrombosis
Low rate of disease-free survival observed
Risk of graft thrombosis noted at medium follow-up
Procedure deemed safe overall

Implication

Retrospective case series examines safety and outcomes of IVC leiomyosarcoma surgery, suggesting implications for treatment strategies.

Abstract

Type I and II IVC leiomyosarcomas resection with subsequent PTFE vascular reconstruction is safe, with a low rate of disease-free survival and a risk of graft thrombosis at medium follow-up.
