摘要

Uterine leiomyoma may metastasize via intravascular to the right heart cavities several years after hysterectomy. The symptoms are usually produced by compression of the tissues beside. We describe a simplified technique for excision of a benign metastasizing leiomyoma of suprahepatic segment of inferior vena cava with intracardiac extension.
