Intravenous Uterine Leiomyomatosis with Inferior Vena Cava and Intracardiac Extensions
A 35-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with a recent history dyspnea upon effort. The patient had undergone uterine myomectomy 10 months previously. The physical examination revealed a heart rate of 86 beats/min with sinus rhythm and a blood pressure of 130/80. There was no heart murmur. The blood counts and blood chemistry were within the normal ranges. The peak serum levels of the c...
متن کاملIntravenous leiomyomatosis with intracardiac extension.
Whereas uterine leiomyoma is a common woman disease, intravenous leiomyomatosis with intracaval and intracardiac complications is a rare condition. The initial presentation is dependent upon the severity of the intracardiac involvement, although complete surgery is the best treatment. The case of a 39-year-old woman is described here, with an initial presentation of dyspnea and right heart fail...
متن کاملIntracardiac Leiomyomatosis
Intravenous leiomyomatosis is a histologically benign smooth-muscle tumor arising from either a uterine myoma or the walls of a uterine vessel with extension into veins. We describe echocardiographic features of intravenous leiomyomatosis with spread into the right-sided cardiac chambers. The patient was a middle-aged woman, with prior history of hysterectomy 2 years earlier who presented with ...
متن کاملDetection of intravenous leiomyomatosis with intracardiac extension by ultrasonography: A case report
Intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) is characterized by histologically benign tumors that exhibit aggressive clinical behavior. On rare occasions, the tumors may extend into the regional and systemic veins, thus reaching the heart. This may subsequently cause intracardiac leiomyomatosis (ICL), which may lead to congestive heart failure and occasionally, sudden fatalities. Due to its rarity and dif...

We report the case of a 45-year-old woman who presented with a three-week history of dyspnea on exertion, shortness of breath and fatigue. Echocardiography showed a lar...
