Primary adrenal leiomyosarcoma, a malignant soft tissue tumour originating from the smooth muscle of the inferior vena cava and adrenal vein, is rarely described in the literature. Cases are often diagnosed at an advanced stage as the tumour is not hormone-producing. We describe a 70-year-old man who presented with lower extremity swelling and abdominal varices and was subsequently found to have a large adrenal mass on imaging. Our case is among the few reported primary adrenal leiomyosarcomas in which a CT-guided biopsy was used to aid in diagnosis.

Retrohepatic Inferior Vena Cava

Anomalies of the inferior vena cava are rare and can easily be misdiagnosed if one is not aware of such variants. We report a case of a 57-year-old patient that had a percutaneous CT-guided biopsy of what was considered to be enlarged pericaval lymph nodes. This occurred because of the poor technique of the CT scan and the unawareness of such a condition. These changes were related to a proximal varicele of an absent, retrohepatic inferior vena cava. There was an extensive collateral network with filling of large azygos and hemiazygos veins draining through the posterior mediastinum into the superior vena cava. This case emphasizes the importance of correctly identifying vascular anomalies before the initiation of biopsy attempts in order to prevent the risk of major complications that could arise during such biopsy.

Abstract Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) of the inferior vena cava (IVC) is an extremely rare malignancy with <400 cases reported. We present a 42-year-old woman with a 3-day history of vague and non-specific abdominal pain. Examination revealed mild tenderness to the epigastrium and right upper quadrant with no other findings. Abdominal ultrasound was performed, which revealed a large hypoechoic mass overlying the IVC. Abdominal computed tomography (CT) was performed which revealed an 8.9 × 7.9 × 9 cm multilobulated lesion encasing the IVC. A CT-guided biopsy was performed which revealed a primary LMS of the IVC. Surgical en bloc excision was performed with an end-to-end Dacron graft for IVC reconstruction. Histopathology confirmed LMS of the vessel wall with negative surgical margins.
