Sumario:Retroperitoneal intravenous leiomyomatosis is a rare benign tumor that can spread through veins carrying significant morbidity. The challenge of its management lies within the complexity of completely excising the tumor, which if carried out improperly can result in neurological or vascular complications requiring complex reparative surgeries. Here we present the successful resection of a retroperitoneal angio-leiomyoma by combining laparoscopic route, micro-surgical techniques and modern endoscopic tools. ELECTRONIC SUPPLEMENTARY MATERIAL: The online version of this article (10.1007/s13224-020-01404-7) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
