Primary adrenal leiomyosarcoma with inferior vena cava thrombosis

We report a primary adrenal leiomyosarcoma in a 59-year-old man. Computed tomography demonstrated a poorly enhanced mass, measuring 10 cm, between the left kidney and the normal left adrenal gland, with tumor thrombus in the inferior vena cava (IVC). The patient underwent left radical nephroadrenalectomy with IVC thrombectomy. The histological diagnosis was adrenal leiomyosarcoma. Adrenal leiomyosarcomas are extremely rare. Only seven cases have been reported previously in the English-language literature.
