| Abstract: | Retroperitoneal tumors and other abdominal malignancies invading the inferior vena cava can be treated surgically when no metastases are present. We resected four retroperitoneal tumors, two renal cell carcinomas, and one gastrointestinal stromal tumor with a concomitant caval resection. Although meticulous care is required when manipulating the major vessels, long-term survival with an improvement in the quality of life was achieved. These cases are described, with particular focus on the management of the major vessels. |
