Item Tumores que invaden la vena cava inferior: revisión pictográfica de los principales hallazgos imagenológicos en tomografía computarizada y resonancia magnética(Sociedad Chilena de Radiología, 2016) Molina, Matias; Schiappacasse, Giancarlo; Labra, AndresThe objective of this article is to describe the multiple entities that can affect and invade the inferior vena cava. These can be either benign entities, but with an aggressive behaviour, or malignancies that originate in the organs adjacent to this vascular structure, or in itself as a leiomyosarcoma. The present review shows different examples in Computed Tomography and Magnetic Resonance, with cases of angiomyolipoma, phaeochromocytoma, adrenal cortical carcinoma, renal cell carcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, a retroperitoneal sarcoma and a leiomyosarcoma originating in the inferior vena cava. Besides these, there are situations that may lead to diagnostic errors, such as the flow artefacts and pseudolipoma.
