description The inferior vena cava leiomyosarcoma is a rare type of retroperitoneal sarcoma. Due to the small number of cases reported in literature, there is no well-defined protocol, based on randomized studies, on the most appropriate treatment for this neoplasia. Studies show that surgical resection R0 is the main curative treatment. We report the case of a patient submitted to surgical R0 resection of leiomyosarcoma of inferior vena cava by videolaparoscopy with good evolution in the postoperative period.
