Intravenous leiomyomatosis: A case study and literature review.

The dissertation presents a case of intravenous leiomyomatosis and conducts the literature review. A 31-year-old woman with a hysteromyomectomy history presented with abnormal uterine bleeding and anemia, a large pelvic tumor, underwent excision of the uterine and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. A pathological diagnosis determined it as intravenous leiomyomatosis. The patient recovered well, and no recurrence was noted after 1 year of follow-up. Intravenous leiomyomatosis is rare. Imaging is helpful, but the final diagnosis of intravenous leiomyomatosis is usually made following surgical excision and histopathology. Early surgical resection is a better treatment modality.
