Short- and Long-term Results of Complete Resection and Vascular Reconstruction for Infrahepatic Inferior Vena Cava Leiomyosarcomas: A Retrospective Case Series of 33 Patients
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
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.
