Intravenous leiomyomatosis is a condition characterized by intravenous growth of histologically benign smooth muscle tumor, originating in the uterus. A case of intravenous leiomyomatosis with right atrial extension in a 64-year-old woman is described. The atrial tumor was successfully removed with a single-stage approach via sternolaparotomy and total circulatory arrest using cardiopulmonary bypass.
