Abstract
Large vessel sarcomas are very rare, one of the most common is originated from the cava. We present a 50 year-old woman with a leiomyosarcoma of the infrahepatic vena cava encompassed the right renal vein. Excision of the tumor was performed in block, from the right renal vein to the bifurcation of the vena cava. A vascular reconstruction was performed with ringed PTFE prosthesis. The anatomopathological study revealed a leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava. This tumors require a multidisciplinary approach due to they are very rare and complex.
