Intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) are rare and complex tumors, characterized by high rates of recurrences after surgical removal and the capability of multi-organ involvement including pulmonary embolization. Regarding the surgical treatment of Intracardiac Leiomiomatosis (ICL), only few articles have been published and no controlled data are available. A combined approach that involves a Team of Cardiologists, Heart Surgeons, Vascular surgeons and Radiologists seems to be successful in treating ICL.

Intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL) are rare and complex tumors, characterized by high rates of recurrences after surgical removal and the capability of multi-organ involvement including pulmonary embolization. Regarding the surgical treatment of Intracardiac Leiomiomatosis (ICL), only few articles have been published and no controlled data are available. A combined approach that involves a Team of Cardiologists, Heart Surgeons, Vascular surgeons and Radiologists seems to be successful in treating ICL.File in questo prodotto:
