Vascular surgery included mobilisation of the aorta or vena cava or total replacement with a prosthesis. There were no major complications and organ resection was limited to that required by tumor invasion. Despite a macroscopically satisfactory resection slice in all cases, local recurrence of malignant tumors was the rule leading to short term mortality (mean survival 30 months for primary sarcomas and 35 days for secondary forms).
