| مستخلص: | Abstract: We describe a case of retroperitoneal leiomyosarcoma with abdominal aortic rupture secondary to invasion. The sarcoma involved the inferior vena cava with extensive tumour thrombus. Common causes of aortic rupture include atherosclerotic aneurysm greater than 5 cm, trauma and local inflammatory erosion. Rupture secondary to tumour is rare. The presence of a rupture of the abdominal aorta is an important radiologic diagnosis to make because early endovascular or surgical repair can prevent a catastrophic free rupture. Inferior vena cava involvement by either primary or invasive leiomyosarcoma may be locally resected but has a poor long-term survival. |
