Right Hepatectomy with Vascular and Biliary Reconstruction for a Portal Vein Leiomyosarcoma

Abstract: Background. Vascular leiomyosarcomas (LMS) are rare malignant mesenchymal tumors arising from vessel smooth muscle cells. They represent only 2% of soft tissue sarcomas and most commonly (50%) originate from the inferior vena cava. [1][2][3] Portal vein LMS are very rare, and their resection combines en bloc negative margin sarcoma surgery principles and complex liver surgery procedures with vascular reconstructions. [3][4][5] Methods. This is the case of a 42-year-old female presenting with a moderate cholest… Show more

“…These resections combine en bloc negative margin sarcoma surgery principles and complex liver surgery procedures with vascular reconstructions. [3][4][5] From the technical point of view, the authors' video shows how to approach tumor resection without compromising R0 resection due to its difficult central location in the hepatic pedicle confluence. Furthermore, it shows how to perform complex vascular reconstruction using an autologous vascular graft to avoid prosthetic vascular complications such as infection and thrombosis.…”
