    Abstract:
    Leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava is a rare tumor. Radical surgical resection is the treatment of choice. Depending on the localization of the tumor surgical therapy includes the local resection of the vena cava with primary closure and the segmental resection of the cava with prosthetic reconstruction. On the basis of four cases the symptomatology, diagnostic procedures, surgical therapy and the results of treatment of leiomyosarcoma of the inferior vena cava are discussed.
