Abstract
Intravenous leiomyomatosis is a rare neoplasm characterized by intravenous growth of histologically benign smooth muscle cell tumor. We report a case of intravenous leiomyomatosis with right atrial extension in a 19-year-old we-man. Various surgical techniques and approaches have been previously reported. In this case, the tumor was re-moved with a single-stage approach via laparotomy without cardiopulmorary bypass.
