Invasion of the vena cava by malignant tumors is generally considered an absolute contraindication for surgery as a result of high surgical risk. Surgical treatment with resection of the vena cava may be beneficial for selected patients. This study was performed to evaluate our experiences with resection of the vena cava for malignant tumors, with a special focus on secondary tumors involving the inferior caval vein.
