Leiomyosarcomas of vascular origin are very rare tumors, predominantly affecting the inferior vena cava (IVC). Although vascular leiomyosarcomas are slow-growing, their non-specific and late presentation results in delayed diagnosis which portends a very poor prognosis. Here we report a case of a 24-year-old man who presented with abdominal pain since 15 days and was found to have unresectable metastatic leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava at initial diagnosis.
血管源性平滑肌肉瘤非常罕见，主要累及下腔静脉（IVC）。尽管血管平滑肌肉瘤生长缓慢，但因其表现无特异性且较晚，导致诊断延迟，预后极差。本文报告 1 例 24 岁男性，因腹痛 15 天就诊，初诊时发现下腔静脉不可切除转移性平滑肌肉瘤。
