Abstract
Retroperitoneal sarcomas rarely invade major vessels, with arterial rupture as a presenting symptom being exceptionally uncommon. Retroperitoneal undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma presenting with right common iliac artery rupture and inferior vena cava thrombosis is described. A 46-year-old female presented with right common iliac artery rupture requiring emergency endovascular aneurysm repair. Further workup revealed retroperitoneal sarcoma invading the inferior vena cava and bilateral common iliac veins. En bloc tumor resection with vascular reconstruction was performed, including right renal vein reconstruction using autologous superficial femoral vein and aortobifemoral bypass with prosthetic graft. Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma was confirmed histopathologically. This exceptionally rare presentation was completely resected.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques is a surgical journal dedicated to publishing peer review high quality case reports, vascular images and innovative techniques related to all aspects of arterial, venous, and lymphatic diseases and disorders, including vascular trauma, malformations, wound care and the placement and maintenance of arterio-venous dialysis accesses with an emphasis on the practicing clinician. The Journal seeks to provide novel and timely information to vascular surgeons, interventionalists, phlebologists, wound care specialists, and allied health professionals involved with the management of patients with the entire spectrum of vascular disorders.
