We report the case of a 69-year-old woman with leiomyosarcoma of the superior vena cava presenting with acute superior vena cava syndrome (SVCS). CT and MRI failed to fully characterize the endovascular process. Percutaneous endovascular biopsy, followed by metallic stent placement to treat the SVCS, confirmed the diagnosis. Symptoms resolved within 48 hours and surgical resection of the tumor was performed one month later. Unfortunately the patient died two weeks later because of intracranial hemorrhage.
我们报告了一例69岁患有上腔静脉平滑肌肉瘤并伴有急性上腔静脉综合征（SVCS）的女性病例。CT和MRI未能完全明确血管内病变情况。经皮血管内活检，随后置入金属支架治疗SVCS，从而确诊。症状在48小时内缓解，一个月后进行了肿瘤手术切除。不幸的是，患者两周后因颅内出血死亡。
