An autopsy case of primary leiomyosarcoma arising in the superior vena cava is presented. A 44 year old Japanese man presented with superior vena cava syndrome and eventually died due to heart tamponade and acute renal failure. Autopsy revealed that the superior vena cava was occluded with a tumor that had invaded the pericardium and right thoracic cavity. Primary caval venous leiomyosarcoma is a rare but lethal disease and most cases arise from the inferior vena cava. This case represents a very rare case of leiomyosarcoma with the rare clinical findings of superior vena cava syndrome and heart tamponade.
本文报告一例起源于上腔静脉的原发性平滑肌肉瘤尸检病例。一名44岁的日本男性出现上腔静脉综合征，最终因心脏压塞和急性肾衰竭死亡。尸检发现上腔静脉被一个侵犯心包和右胸腔的肿瘤阻塞。原发性腔静脉平滑肌肉瘤是一种罕见但致命的疾病，大多数病例起源于下腔静脉。该病例是非常罕见的平滑肌肉瘤，伴有上腔静脉综合征和心脏压塞这一罕见临床表现。
